[boost] Guidelines for library submissions

I am about to add the following to the guidelines for boost library
submissions:

Use spaces rather than tabs in your source code; there is no agreed
upon standard for how many spaces a tab represents.  Limit line
lengths to 80 characters; that prevents truncation or line wraps when
printing of your source code.  Either Ctrl-M,Ctrl-J (0x0D,0x0A) or
just Ctrl-J (0x0A) is fine as a line terminator.  A few compilers
complain about Ctrl-M alone as a line terminator, or about mixing
line terminators in the same source file.

Comments?
