I also had a problem running regression tests against master, not seeing 
it show up on the 'master' regression test page, posting a message to 
the Boost testing mailing list, and when no one seem to know why the 
results never showed on the 'master' regression test page, just giving up.

So can we please document on the Boost web site for running regression 
tests what you have answered here, ie exactly what has to be done to 
have one's 'master' regression test show up properly on the website's page ?
