Is not all the documentation for all boost projects in their
respective lib directories?  If you sync to Boost Trunk you will have
the documentation in the normal and expected place, what is wrong
this?  It is accessible by the svn as well, and it is constantly being
updated.  There seems nothing odd about this, it is accessible as any
other boost library documentation is.

You will be missing out on a lot, the old Spirit is, quite frankly,
rather horrible in comparison.  Spirit 2.1 is complete, the docs are
almost complete, and the docs that matter are already complete, there
is no reason not to be using it.
