Hi Guix,

the attached patch adds the Intel TBB library.

There are a couple of things I'm not sure about:

- should the examples be included per default or should they go into a
  separate "doc" output together with the /doc directory?  Together they
  take up about 10MB.
- the version number is only given as "4.3 Update 2 Current version" on
  the download page.  I turned this into "4.3.2", but I'm not sure if
  this is really equivalent or if we should rather use the datestamp on
  the tarball (= "43_20141204")
- the second paragraph of the description sounds a little too much like
  advertisement; any suggestions on how to reword this, or can I just
  delete the second paragraph?

Best,
Ricardo

I would put them in “doc”.

“4.3.2” looks good.  If need be, the numbering scheme can always be
adjusted later.

Rather put this in ‘snippet’ (I think Mark made this comment on IRC.)

What about “C++ library for parallel programming” instead?

I would indeed remove the 2nd paragraph, and perhaps add something like
“It provides parallel loop constructs, asynchronous tasks,
synchronization primitives, atomic operations, and more.”

Rather: “GPLv2 with run-time exception:
<https://www.threadingbuildingblocks.org/licensing#runtime-exception>”.

Thanks,
Ludo’.

Okay. There's now a "doc" output for /doc/ and /doc/examples/.

Sounds good.  Changed.

Done.
