Mainly they're just inconsistent, I think my eyes must have glazed over 
during editing.

Looking through the lists, the ones that look neatest to me are those that 
are capitalised, but without the "Boost." prefix which looks a little "busy" 
when you have a long list.

So is a form like this OK: " Lyx uses many parts of Boost, including Array, 
Bind, Regex, Type Traits, Function, and Signals. "?

It needs someone to step up and do the editing, it's not hard, but it sure 
is tedious I'm afraid.

I'm packing up for the day here now, I'm not sure if I'll be able to do much 
with this tomorrow either :-(
