That would be nice. It will fix at least two bug reports: http://svn.boost.org/trac/boost/ticket/1644 http://svn.boost.org/trac/boost/ticket/1676 -Steve

Hi, Beman Really sorry for documentation mess. At this point documentation in svn is plain garbage. I've created documentation based on BoostBook. html version of it available here: patmedia.net/~rogeeff/html/index.html Unfortunately I had to introduce quite some number of modification to the BoostBook to make it work the way I need. I do not see this a good time to introduce these changes into boost. Do you think it would be a good idea to dump generated html in place of existing docs for now? I am going to be on vocation starting this Friday. I will have time to work on this. Gennadiy On Mon, Mar 17, 2008 at 9:37 AM, Beman Dawes <bdawes@acm.org> wrote:

It is too late to do anything about this for 1.35.0. The plan is to issue RC2 later today or early tomorrow, and to ship the final within a few days. So you be putting your effort into getting the docs in better shape in trunk so they will be ready for 1.36.0. --Beman
