I completely agree that boost docs should generally be a "how to use"

There are two parts to a documentation: - a reference documentation, which says non-ambiguously what a function does, what its preconditions are, which file it is in, etc. It is easy to agree upon the fact that this documentation should be written with Doxygen to ensure that it's always in sync with real code.
I think Doxygen is fine for "regular" libraries, but I always have a question: how could a library like Spirit be doucumented with it?
