There's this text in the page linked above: Post Beta Changes TODO: Add to main release notes before final release. Is this a left-over of a pre-release content?
You can also download directly from SourceForge: http://sourceforge.net/projects/boost/files/boost/1.54.0/

And also, is the release branch open for merges now?

No. We usually wait a few days to make sure that the release is not catastrophically broken (i.e, so broken that we have to do a .1 release) before opening the release branch. Based on past cycles, I would expect to open the release branch next Monday. -- Marshall Marshall Clow Idio Software <mailto:mclow.lists@gmail.com> A.D. 1517: Martin Luther nails his 95 Theses to the church door and is promptly moderated down to (-1, Flamebait). -- Yu Suzuki

So, is it open now? Now that we have a maintenance branch for 1.54 (which has patches that the release branch doesn't, BTW) do we really need the release branch locked?
It looks like some of the documentation links are broken, such as in boost.geometry broken: http://www.boost.org/doc/libs/1_54_0/libs/geometry/doc/html/geometry/referen... linked from: http://www.boost.org/doc/libs/1_54_0/libs/geometry/doc/html/index.html Cheers!

Thanks for reporting this. It's a problem with the build script for some new reference documentation in geometry, which is causing it to output empty documentation. I'll see if I can fix it and upload the correct documentation to the site. It'll take a day or two.

It should be fixed on the site now. But it will still be missing in the download. The documentation build is also working now, you can see the latest trunk docs at: http://boost-sandbox.sourceforge.net/libs/geometry/doc/html/geometry/referen...
The PDF build of the boost documentation (for those libraries that support it) is now at https://sourceforge.net/projects/boost/files/boost-docs/1.54.0/. Please let me know if there are any SNAFU's. Regards, John.
