Hm, given the ideal of uniformly supporting different bindings, I would 
prefer [b] or [c], and lean towards [b]. Are there reasons others would 
prefer one or the other?

You would need to be added to the SF project...

One of the SF admins for the project...

Traditionally new libraries are developed separately and when they pass 
the review they are added into Boost. But langbinding has been and odd 
duck for a while. It's a new library, but it's also mostly a refactor of 
an existing library (Boost.Python). One path new libraries take is for 
the development to be done in the Boost-Sandbox SF project space and 
later moved when accepted. IIRC langbinding used to be in the sandbox 
project but Dave wanted to work on integration with Boost.Python so it 
got moved (or something like that). Anyway even though it might be more 
painful for Boost.Python we should consider moving the langbinding code 
into the sandbox project before any divergence occurs.

...Dave, Daniel thoughts?
