Clicking the Boost Build documentation link does bring up a local page 
with further links of Tutorial, Documentation, and Github at the top of 
the page. Clicking on the Documentation link gives an error with, under 
Firefox, "Can't find the file at 
my_boost_root/tools/build/doc/html/index.html. Is it really the 
intention for the end-user only to have Boost Build Documentation in the 
distribution if he manually builds the documentation for himself ? I 
would at least expect that if the local documentation did not exist that 
Boost Build would at least redirect to the latest build of its 
documentation online.
