I was under impression that stopping factor is that Tango can't switch to boost so it and Phobos can share the same license. Or maybe that Tango has problems with itself switching to single license from current dual licensing thing that has problems.

I read all links involving this discussion, and frankly, its a mess (too much details).

Also, I'm not tracking who is troll here, so I take seriously everything I read that sounds remotely non-trolling.
