Re: [boost] documentation doesn't build anymore

Those files are there so that someone with a copy of Boost from CVS can read current documentation without having to generate it.

I agree that this is kind of nice, but checking generated files into the CVS repository is really not a good idea in my experience. It is just a matter of time before someone overwrites the files by accidently committing the (re-)generated versions. As a matter of fact, the CVS history suggests that accidents like this _have_ happened before. ;-) Peter
