The good folks at boost-docs have been working on improving the
look-and-feel of Boost's documentation. This work is based largely on
Rene Rivera's website redesign. The change went in to both HEAD and
the release branch a few days ago. The biggest change is a smaller
font.
Report any problems with the new style to
[EMAIL PROTECTED]
1) The server is so slow that the type_traits docs won't load, looks like it
really is time to change. (Actually it did load eventually - after about 20
minutes!)
2) The Boost.Math docs reference quite a lot of images under libs/math/doc
that aren't on the server.
Style comments:
1) I quite liked the colored backgrounds to code blocks, it made them stand
out visually quite nicely.
2) The smaller font is undoubtably good for printing, but for reading on the
web it makes the text rather dense: depends a bit on how wide your screen
is.
3) What happened to the color in the headers? If you look at the
type_traits docs now say
http://www.boost.org/regression-logs/cs-win32_metacomm/doc/html/boost_typetraits/reference.html#boost_typetraits.is_integral
then there's not much visual separation between headers and other items. Of
course this could be solved by better chunking, although it's going to be
hard to develop a "one chunk fits all" solution.
I really didn't intent to complain about everything... but I don't seem to
have left much out. Probably I'll get used to it, so just my 2c worth.
John.
