Subject: [boost] [1.41] cmake references in getting started

Hi,

I went to fix a broken URL in getting started, and noticed that it now
has references to CMake.

I have a couple of questions:

1. Why is that reference made inside "Easy Build and Install" section,
which was specifically writen by myself to describe the brand new
"bootstrap + bjam" procedure?

2. Why is getting started including reference for experimental build
system at all?

The commit that added this is:

        r56947 | troy | 2009-10-17 07:33:43 +0400 (Sat, 17 Oct 2009) | 5 lines

        Replacement for boost.cmake on trunk and release: notices that it
        exists in the getting started guide.

and I don't think the change was discussed.

Thanks,
Volodya
