> The standard library now supports std::function/bind/mem_fn that is equivalent to boost's functionality. There are a few minor differences, but it is mostly a drop-in replacement. 
> Some differences:
>  # Placeholders _1 and _2 are in the std placeholders namespace
>  # boost::function uses an empty() method to tell if it is unset. Instead, std::function can be compared to nullptr.
> One upside of switching is that std::function properly supports nullptr where boost requires NULL. It is one of the few locations where using nullptr instead of NULL matters.
