Within a couple of hours, the new version of this page will be available in context at

It might be easier to wait for that to become available.
Great job! This looks very good and easy on the eyes.
However, will the .qbk sources be made available?
It's not .qbk -- see the bottom of the page. http://boost-consulting.com/boost/more/getting_started.html is generated from http://boost-consulting.com/boost/more/getting_started.rst
I'd like to add a few things on the Windows MSVC build for 1.34 which you may have missed. There will be issues like with just `using msvc ;' in the user-config.jam file
It's not needed for getting started. The --toolset=msvc option handles that for you.
and other small details (like the compiler warnings that will be produced and should be ignored, etc.).
That might be useful, thanks.
I also like copy-editing documentation (had done this in high school and was pretty much having fun -- a hobby of course, which I want to be able to put into good use somday) and have a few things I'd like to point out -- some unintended grammatical and typographical errors in a few places -- and be able to change on my local copy before submitting a patch to you.
Looking forward to it.
Again, thanks and great job on the new getting started page!
