You are showing more restraint than I can muster!

I like it!  A lot!

Link color contrast is just barely too subtle for me to notice easily
when embedded in regular text.  But others may feel differently.

My only real complaint with the page is that the search box is too
dense.  Going to one line labels for the radio buttons would be a big
help.  You could change the text on the labels to "this site" and
"mailing lists."  True, lists.boost.org doesn't host all our lists :(.

It works just fine that way.
