Yes, that's true. In short:
"examples" directory is V1
"jam_src" is both V1 and V2
all other directories are V2
a few top-level files are V2, which the rest belonging to V1.

> So how do I start using V2?

Per top level "boost_build_v2.html", you first build jam, and then either set
BOOST_BOOST_PATH or create boost-build.jam file in your projects.
You can also experiment with projects under examples-v2
