Joel's look-and-feel is really nice.  I like it way better than the
old Spirit look and find it much closer to the pre-BoostBook
documentation traditions of Boost
(e.g. http://www.boost.org/libs/utility/utility.htm) than the
"existing Boost look-n-feel," probably because of the lightweight
black-on-white theme.  If I have any criticism, I'd have to say that
boldifying links may over-emphasize them.  But that is really a minor
point.
