I've only had a glance over it, and it looks good to me.
Would it be appropriate for this document to include a paragraph (in its introduction) entitled "Why use Boost?" Remember we discussed this at length a while back as being another thing that can put new users off using Boost in the first place.
Sorry, *what* could put new users off?
(I notice that there is still nothing on the Boost homepage to this effect other than a couple of lines on what Boost is. The homepage reads to me as if anyone visiting it already knows that they want to use Boost.)
Interesting point. I'm preparing a new Boost Consulting website for launch soon; it has quite a bit of material about "why boost?" It seems to me that what you're describing doesn't belong in the Getting Started document, but on the front page. -- Dave Abrahams Boost Consulting www.boost-consulting.com
