It only refers to the "Determine Interest" section.

I've found Reddit very, very useful in helping refine the popularity of
a new library before I begin. pcpp for example took in a lot of feedback
from there before I began.

I also have them amazing in knocking documentation into new orbits of
usefulness. The Outcome tutorial is mostly thanks to Reddit.

Note Reddit is only suitable for those two steps alone. The reset of the
submission process is boost-dev and Incubator only. I've tried to
clarify the wording, try
https://boost-website.nedprod.com/development/submissions.html again.
And Peter, note the seconders needed is one person now.
