I'm not picking on you; everyone seems to do this. I find it inconvenient to download a big archive just to browse the documentation. That tends to prevent me from looking at things I might examine otherwise -- your loss as well as mine. ...
It's not the size; it's the accessibility. I'm _really_ lazy: I don't want to download-and-decompress the docs.
I agree (not about Dave being lazy, about the importance of being able to follow a link directly to the first page of the docs). Especially for library reviews: I want to skim the intro and examples to see if I can justify trying to find time to review it.
I've wondered for awhile if we don't need the same sort of protocol for Boost itself. That is, a document only download. Admitedly it's less important for releases since you can just browse the website.... Jeff
