You haven't confirmed that the directory structure has changed significantly.

Was
  boost-root/boost/simple/  
     simple.hpp  ... /detail/stuff.hpp

  boost-root/libs/simple/ test 
  boost-root/libs/simple/example
  boost-root/libs/simple/doc

now is boost-root/libs/simple/include/simple.hpp ...

 and 

  boost-root/libs/simple/test,
  boost-root/libs/simple/example
  boost-root/libs/simple/doc ...

There was a logic (about whose details I am having a senior moment) for the previous structure.

I just want to be sure that the change is intended (and perhaps even understand why ;-)

Would it be useful if I actually created a simple example - trying to follow your docs?

Thanks

Paul
