The boost license is not an open source license, so no, you do not need to release your source code in any way shape or form.
The boost license is not a *reciprocal* open source license, in the manner of the GPL[1], OSL[2], or RPL[3], but is certainly an open source license, by the OSI's definition: http://opensource.org/docs/osd. It's an *academic* license, like the BSD License[4], MIT License[5], or zlib License[6].
