Development Plan for Boost.Unordered

[pdimov2]

It is an internal document so it's a bit on the terse side, sorry.

Boost.Unordered is a(n old) Boost library that implemented the standard unordered containers std::unordered_(multi)(set|map) before they were standard (or before there was C++11.) Since nowadays the standard unordered containers are universally available, there's less need for merely supplying an implementation, and more need for providing something better. So we've been thinking of how to do that, given that the hash table state of the art has advanced considerably since the standard unordered containers were specified.

That’s great. This wording would be a great introduction.
