To do this, in the '.toc' style of 'boostbook.css', remove:
margin-left: 15%;
margin-right: 15%;
and add:
float: right;
This should do it.
NOTE: This will affect the main TOC as well! Let me know if this is a
problem and I'll look at trying to differentiate them.

I have posted an update on the boost-doc mailing list that implements this.
I have moved the header/nav code over to a new stylesheet called
'navbar.xsl'. It currently supports 3 parameters that control the way the
header/nav is displayed and is still experimental. Let me know what you
think.
nav.layout -- controls how the "Home", "Libraries", etc. is displayed:
* none (default) -- do not display;
* horizontal -- display like in the old L&F;
* vertical -- display like in the "Getting Started" page
nav.border -- border control on the header:
* none (default) -- do not display a border;
* Boost -- display a border in the old L&F style
nav.flow -- how are the navigation links laid out:
* none -- do not display navigation links at the top;
* DocBook (default) -- display like the current L&F;
* Spirit -- display grouped together like the Spirit docs
Chris has reported a few problems with the imports, so with the boost-doc
post in 'html.xsl' you'll need to change
<xsl:import
href="http://docbook.sourceforge.net/release/xsl/current/html/chunk.xsl"/>
to
<xsl:import
href="http://docbook.sourceforge.net/release/xsl/current/html/docbook.xsl"/>
and in 'docbook-layout.xsl' you'll need to add:
<xsl:import
href="http://docbook.sourceforge.net/release/xsl/current/html/chunk.xsl"/>
.
I shall change the parameters to allow Spirit as the default nav layout,
since this seems a consensus :).
Regards,
Reece
