Boost.MultiArray: Extra Notes

## Compiler Support

Boost.MultiArray was designed with compiler support in mind. Interface compromises were kept to a minimum, but efforts were made to account for C++ Standard compliance issues in compilers that were popular at the time the library was written. That said, Boost.MultiArray has been tested with the following compilers:

1. Gnu C++ Compiler v2.95.2 (compile with `-ftemplate-depth-50`)
2. Gnu C++ Compiler v3.0.2
3. Kuck and Associates C++ Compiler v4.0f
4. Microsoft Visual C++ v6.0 sp5
5. Comeau C++ Compiler v4.2.45 beta 2 (libcomo beta 14)
6. Intel C++ Compiler v5.0 (with MS lib v6.0 sp5)
7. Metrowerks CodeWarrior C++ Compiler v7.1

Boost.MultiArray is known to NOT work with Borland C++ v5.5.1. Support for this compiler is forthcoming.

## Future Work

The following is a list of work that is intended for the near future -- following the initial addition of the library to the Boost distribution:

1. Pursue and document performance issues related to compilers and implementation.
2. More comprehensive examples of using the library components.
