Hi David, Thank you for the great document. It should help ease users into Boost. I just have a couple of suggestions/comments. In Section 4, would it be more intuitive to list those libraries that are header-only? The topic heading is "Header-Only Libraries," but the list is non-header-only libraries. Also, in terms of deciding if they need to compile boost, having a list of libraries that *don't* require compilation might be more useful. In Section 6.3, the Unix command line is missing --toolset. Some of the comments in that section (specifically the Note) imply that --toolset is mandatory. Is it not needed? David
