It's something I'm interested in as well, but too busy to really work 
on seriously at the moment.  Now that Doug and friends have designed
the boost-book XML it should 'simply' be a matter of taking the 
Doxygen XML output and transforming it into boost-book.  Presumably
we would want to use XSLT to do this since we already have this
set of tools.

I think it would be very valuable to try and do this sort of 
linkup because I suspect we may be missing a few things from 
boost-book that have proven useful in other documentation 
systems.  For example, the distinction between a brief 
description and a long description for classes and
functions. Brief descriptions typically being one liners 
that can get generated into table of contents like references.
I'm not sure I see how do this in boost-book reference.  But 
I haven't really tried to write a boost-book reference yet --
just looked at some of the samples...
