That would be me. :-)

The docs are here: http://tinyurl.com/6tdvy. It's essentially finished, except
for two points:

1. If it's integrated into Boost.Book, the documentation can be
self-synchronizing, eliminating most need for the [link to this page] button. I
think Reece Dunne did some work in this direction.

2. I'm planning to write a perl script which will make documentation writtenwith
the tree control self-synchronizing even if it's not generated by Boost.Book.

To understand what I mean by synchronization, see http://tinyurl.com/49hwe.

Also note that the docs look better when the boost logo appears directly over
the table of contents, as it does here: http://tinyurl.com/3p79x.
