Multiprocessing in Boost?

I need to create processes in a cross platform way.

I noticed that boost::process is not included in Boost, yet, and its last update is more than two years old. Is it a good idea to use it, or could it be a forgotten utility not worth considering?

Are there alternatives still inside Boost?

Thank's.

From a research I've did , boost.process "cutting edge" can be found here (please note Copyright © 2006-2012) It includes the bread & butter of process management (stream redirection, PATH env variable search.) IMO more machinery should be added (e.g. bounded wait for process termination) yet it worth usage consideration :)
