In item 3 under
http://www.boost-consulting.com/boost/more/getting_started/windows.html#
the-boost-distribution I have a couple of comments on the following
sentence:

depending on your religion as regards the use of angle bracket includes.
Even Windows users can (and, for portability reasons, probably should)
use forward slashes in #include directives; your compiler doesn't care. 

I think it is clearer to use "...in regards to the use..." or
"...regarding the use..." instead of "...as regards the use..."

The other comment is that the word "religion" is a bit odd and may have
a different meaning for different readers unfamiliar with its use in the
English language--I'd say it applies to "the whole enchilada", too, but
being from Mexico I'm fond of that phrase ;-).  I'd recommend
"preferences" instead of "religion":

depending on your preferences regarding the use of angle bracket
includes. Even Windows users can (and, for portability reasons, probably
should) use forward slashes in #include directives; your compiler
doesn't care.
