I totally agree that this is great work, but Beman, have you used the
installer provided by Boost Consulting? It does some important and
useful things that the CMake-generated installers do not (yet). Most
notable among them, all the binaries are downloaded on demand from
SourceForge mirrors, and the interface for selecting libraries and
toolsets is both intuitive and flexible. Daniel Wallin did some killer
work to make that happen, and it should be incorporated in our CMake
process.
