2) would boost still exist as a library? Or its entire

I would imagine that it will continue to exist for quite some
time, if nothing else as a playground for TR2.
There are also a number of components in Boost which are not
candidates for standardization, and probably never will be. I
expect that it will continue to exist. With regards to
components which have been adopted by the standard, I would
expect development to cease on them, but hopefully, they will
continue to be available until they really are available in all
compilers people use (which could be a long time---I think some
people are still using VC++ 6.0, for example).
