I'd also agree that it is most desirable to be able to blow a ISO9660 standard
CD of Boost:

level 2 (max filename 31 chars). max pathdept 8, max 255 chars in path.

At present this is not possible because of lots of messages like

classboost_1_1date_time_1_1all__date__names__put__coll__graph.png

and Joliet names of class132.htm (listed in ISO-=L3) are the same

(Using Nero 5.5.10.20)

I suspect this is easy to fix,
and worth keeping the 31 char limit and trying to keep the path depth below 7 if
possible to give users a holding directoyr.
