Dear all,

I have for the second time tried to compile a quickbook version of the
docs for Boost.Range. Without luck. Is there an idiot proof procedure
for getting this loooong toolchain to work on windows?

My current error (after using the automatic install script) is:

$ bjam --v2
warning: Graph library does not contain optional GraphML reader.
note: to enable GraphML support, set EXPAT_INCLUDE and EXPAT_LIBPATH to the
note: directories containing the Expat headers and libraries, respectively.
warning: skipping optional Message Passing Interface (MPI) library.
note: to enable MPI support, add "using mpi ;" to user-config.jam.
note: to suppress this message, pass "--without-mpi" to bjam.
note: otherwise, you can safely ignore this message.
Building Boost.Regex with the optional Unicode/ICU support disabled.
Please refer to the Boost.Regex documentation for more information
(don't panic: this is a strictly optional feature).

I'm getting kinda desparate here ... perhaps I should simply commit the
docs and let them be generated on a test server. Do we have such a
functionality in place?

Thanks in advance
