Cross-posting to the testing list, as that seems like the right place for this:

As the page says, "This page is gradually being rewritten to reflect
the current Boost release process. Until the rewrite is complete, some
sections are out-of-date". If anyone knows of any ommissions or errors
feel free to correct them, it is a wiki. (Or is you don't have a trac
login, send us the correction).
