I also would like to thank everyone pushing the new website, Boost needs 
a more modern one. The release notes page seems hard to parse, though:

https://www.boost.revsys.dev/releases/

Maybe a bit of separation between libraries (and marking libraries with 
some bold or underlinining) can help a bit. Or if the library changes 
list is a bit long, a TOC section could also help.

Best,
