Hello Boost Community,

I am planning a large-scale migration of a legacy codebase from SourcePro Rogue Wave to Boost.

Due to strict production constraints, we need to continue compiling with -std=c++14 across our environments (SLES 15 SP6 and RHEL 9).

My question:


  *   Can we consider migrating to BOOST given our project follows C++14 standards ( from long term perspective)
  *   Are older Boost versions (compatible with C++14) still receiving security patches or critical fixes?
  *   If not, what is the recommended strategy for teams that must remain on C++14 for an extended period ?

>From older discussions, I understand Boost typically focuses on supporting newer C++ standards rather than maintaining older standard compatibility (e.g., C++03). I would like to confirm the current stance for C++14.

Any guidance or best practices would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks and regards,
Piyush
