Missing libraries

I edited your recipe on futures (hope that's okay — happy to move the content somewhere else) to include a link to another implementation (using boost very heavily). The libraries that it uses that aren't available on here (yet) are Boost.Tuple, Boost.Mpl and Boost.TypeTraits

I've not entered all of the libraries here yet. If you want to post a recipe for a library not yet listed then just go ahead and post it anyway, but leave a reply on this thread saying which library you need added. You can edit the recipe later and add the library when it's been added.

That's great. I did notice and added the libraries. I didn't tick the check boxes on them though. Should it link the libraries that are used in the code, or any where the recipe might be relevant? I don't really have an answer for that.

I expect people will look at a library and want to see recipes specific to how that library can be used. Maybe the worker threads already lists too many libraries in that case? I can see a good reason for only including Boost.Thread.

BTW, thanks for already linking the libs when you added them to the description. Saved me some time :) It also means the links go live the moment the pages are added which is also cool.
