Dear Paul,

thank you for your positive feedback and for your advice to make my
html documentation more easily accessible. I followed your tip and
placed the documentation here:

http://www.herold-faulhaber.de/itl/

Within the next days I am going to provide a few more examples that
are better integrated with boost libraries specifically
boost.date_time.

cheers Joachim
