Since 2013, I have been working on libraries that implement open multi-methods in modern C++. After releasing the first one - YOMM11 - I asked on the Boost mailing list if there was an interest in bringing YOMM11 into Boost. Back then there was not much. I made another attempt when I released the much improved YOMM2, but interest was still feeble. Or maybe I did not explain what it was about well enough. Anyway, I continued improving YOMM2 as a stand-alone project, and, in retrospect, I now think that it was for the best, at the time. YOMM2 had a bunch of users, engaged enough to send me PRs, and did not cause much trouble in terms of bugs. As for its internals, let's…

Boost.Bloom is a header-only C++ library for efficient probabilistic set membership testing. It allows you to check whether an element might be in a set, with minimal memory overhead and no false negatives, ideal for high-throughput scenarios like caching, deduplication, and indexing. The filter is highly space-efficient, and can dramatically reduce the cost of negative lookups in systems where accessing the full data set is expensive.

The C++ Alliance, one of the sponsors of the recent WG21 meeting in Sofia, Bulgaria, has brought some Boost posters and merchandise to the event. It's been a nice opportunity to share with the commitee members information on some of the newest Boost libraries and the launch of our new website. On the standardization front, the long-awaited inclusion of reflection in C++26 has been making the rounds across the community. Try to guess who's who in the pictures below! Cheers!
