Unfortunately, approximately 300 of the files appear to reference a non-existent license file, and a broken URL. For example, in 3.44.1 distribution: boost/date_time/c_local_time_adjustor.hpp contains: * Use, modification and distribution is subject to the * Boost Software License, Version 1.0. (See accompanying * file LICENSE-1.0 or http://www.boost.org/LICENSE-1.0) But neither the file LICENSE-1.0, nor the URL produce a license file. There's not much that can be done about the missing file (I guessing that it intended to reference LICENSE_1_0.txt, as pretty much every other file does), but maybe the broken link could be addressed by making it redirect to the correct license file. I'm sorry if this all sounds somewhat pedantic. But so are the lawyers... ",Bugs,closed,Boost 1.35.0,None,Boost 1.34.1,Problem,fixed,,
