Minor problem: on the FAQ at http://www.boost.org/more/faq.htm , the very first question is, "How do I download the libraries?" and the answer is, "See Download instructions." But "Download" is a broken link. Points to http://www.boost.org/libs/libraries.htm#Download ; although http://www.boost.org/libs/libraries.htm does exist, it does not contain an anchor called "Download". The FAQ should probably be changed to point to http://www.boost.org/more/getting_started.html , or maybe to http://sourceforge.net/project/showfiles.php?group_id=7586 - Mike Morearty
