Original standard container code comes from <a href="http://www.sgi.com/tech/stl/" target="_top">SGI
STL library</a>, which enhanced the original HP STL code. Code was
rewritten for <span class="bold"><strong>Boost.Interprocess</strong></span> and moved
to <span class="bold"><strong>Boost.Intrusive</strong></span>. Many thanks to Alexander
Stepanov, Meng Lee, David Musser, Matt Austern... and all HP and SGI STL
developers.

on <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Loki_%28C%2B%2B%29" target="_top">Loki's</a>
AssocVector class. Code was rewritten and expanded for <span class="bold"><strong>Boost.Interprocess</strong></span>,
so thanks to Andrei Alexandrescu.

<code class="computeroutput"><span class="identifier">stable_vector</span></code> was invented

M. L&#243;pez Mu&#241;oz</a>, then adapted for <span class="bold"><strong>Boost.Interprocess</strong></span>.
Thanks for such a great container.

<code class="computeroutput"><span class="identifier">static_vector</span></code> was based
on Andrew Hundt's and Adam Wulkiewicz's high-performance <code class="computeroutput"><span class="identifier">varray</span></code> class. Many performance improvements
of <code class="computeroutput"><span class="identifier">vector</span></code> were also inspired
in their implementation. Thanks!

Howard Hinnant's help and advices were essential when implementing move
semantics, improving allocator support or implementing small string optimization.
Thanks Howard for your wonderful standard library implementations.

<li class="listitem">
And finally thanks to all Boosters who helped all these years, improving,
fixing and reviewing all my libraries.
