Boost release 1.56.0 beta 1 is now available from SourceForge

See http://sourceforge.net/projects/boost/files/boost/1.56.0.beta.1/

This release contains 2 new libraries:
	* Align: Memory alignment functions, allocators, and adaptors, from Glen Fernandes.
	* Type_Index: Runtime/Compile time copyable type info, from Antony Polukhin.

Modularization
Boost version control has migrated to a system using git submodules. This shouldn't \
make too much of a difference to users, although the directory structure is now a bit \
different.

Parts of some libraries have been moved into different modules, and several new \
modules have been extracted from existing code. All header paths should remain the \
same.

The new modules are:
	* Assert: Customizable assert macros. Maintained by Peter Dimov.
	* Core: Core utilities used by other libraries, with minimal dependencies. \
                Maintained by Peter Dimov, Glen Fernandes and Andrey Semashev.
	* Lexical_Cast: General literal text conversions, such as an int represented a \
                string, or vice-versa, from Kevlin Henney.
	* Throw_Exception: A common infrastructure for throwing exceptions from Boost \
                libraries, from Emil Dotchevski.
	* Winapi: Windows API declarations without <windows.h>, for internal Boost use.

For details of what's in the release, see \
http://www.boost.org/users/history/version_1_56_0.html.  Note that the links to files \
on this web page are for the final release - use the SourceForge link above to get \
the beta files.

Please download the beta, give it a try, and report any problems you encounter.

Thanks,
