Ok, when we publisa the boost document of Japanese edition, then I
announce the URL. Adding a link to there will be very good motivation
for us!!

Now, our project goes on cppll ML, which is Japanese mailing list of platform-independent
discussion about C++ laungage and library. So, of course, boost is often discussed.
The official URL: http://www.freeml.com/ctrl/html/MLInfoForm/cppll but
this page is written in Japanese, sorry.

I am very glad to meet you, and boost.

thanks.
