Thanks, I was unaware of that. Unfortunately, it only has the pdf  
documentation, not the html documentation. I'm interested in installing  
the html documentation, much like GNU Autotools where one can also install  
documentation in some standard location. It seems this feature is lacking  
in boost's build system, is this true? (I'm building boost from scratch.)

BTW, did you find this via a direct link from the main boost web site, or  
by scrounging the sourceforge site?

Thanks,
