After reading about Volodya's insertion of a GA tracker for Boost.Build docs, I wonder whether it'd make sense to add one of these to the boost.org website itself. Some of the data we could gather, like for instance the geographical distribution of visitors, can be very illuminating.
There are two problems at first sight with this:
