[Please do not mail me a copy of your followup] OK, we've already established that the 'Experimenting with Modular Boost' instructions are woefully stale. Can someone please briefly describe what submodules I need to manually add just to get something bootstrapped? In the svn boost there is <root>/build and <root>/tools/build; neither of these is present in boostorg/boost and while there is a build repo, it seems to define a structure that creates <root>/build/build, so I'm confused. -- "The Direct3D Graphics Pipeline" free book <http://tinyurl.com/d3d-pipeline> The Computer Graphics Museum <http://computergraphicsmuseum.org> The Terminals Wiki <http://terminals.classiccmp.org> Legalize Adulthood!
