Using Boost.Build for non Boost projects?

Hi, from the Boost.Build documentation it is not clear to me whether Boost.Build is a system specifically designed for building Boost libraries or whether it is a general purpose build system. For example in the "Getting Started" section there are examples for setting up an independent project whereas in the "Design Criteria" section it is shown that Boost.Build was specifically designed for building Boost libraries. Now I wonder whether it is wise to use Boost.Build for non Boost projects or whether I should set up my own build system based on the original Perforce Jam (eg. because Boost.Build might become tightly integrated with Boost in the future).
