Boost provides free peer-reviewed portable C++ source 
 libraries.  A large part of Boost is provided as C++ template code
 which is resolved entirely at compile-time without linking.  This 
 package aims to provide the most useful subset of Boost libraries 
 for template use among CRAN packages. By placing these libraries in 
 this package, we offer a more efficient distribution system for CRAN 
 as replication of this code in the sources of other packages is 
 avoided. As of release 1.84.0-0, the following Boost libraries are
 included: 'accumulators' 'algorithm' 'align' 'any' 'atomic' 'beast'
 'bimap' 'bind' 'circular_buffer' 'compute' 'concept' 'config'
 'container' 'date_time' 'detail' 'dynamic_bitset' 'exception'
 'flyweight' 'foreach' 'functional' 'fusion' 'geometry' 'graph' 'heap'
 'icl' 'integer' 'interprocess' 'intrusive' 'io' 'iostreams'
 'iterator' 'lambda2' 'math' 'move' 'mp11' 'mpl' 'multiprecision'
 'numeric' 'pending' 'phoenix' 'polygon' 'preprocessor' 'process'
 'propery_tree' 'qvm' 'random' 'range' 'scope_exit' 'smart_ptr' 'sort'
 'spirit' 'tuple' 'type_traits' 'typeof' 'unordered' 'url' 'utility'
 'uuid'.
