[Spirit] Version question

Hello, I want to use Boost.Spirit to parse some data so I'm reading the documentation. I'm a little confused because the documentation linked to from 1.37.0 takes me to a Spirit user's guide apparently regarding "Spirit classic". Does Boost 1.37.0 include two Spirit versions? If so, do I need to be looking elsewhere for documentation on how to use the non-classic version? Essentially I want to use the latest version of Spirit that comes with Boost 1.37.0 and would like guidance on that please. Regards, Pete

There are indeed 2 versions, classic and spirit 2. For the latter, the
examples in $BOOST_ROOT/libs/spirit/examples/qi contain complete code
examples and the docs can be found in $BOOST_ROOT/libs/spirit/doc. They
are not yet complete but should get you started. Besides that there is
the mailing list

I had read through a lot of the Classic Spirit docs and am now reading through the Spirit2 docs - Spirit2 looks really good so far and really easy to get into! Thanks to all involved.
