100% agreement here.  The current situation doesn't even remotely scale 
well.  It's useful to have all the docbook docs built nightly, but IMO we 
need a way to achieve this without having one monolithic document.

There's another issue here too: I've spent quite a bit of time messing with 
xslt options to get the math-toolkit docs looking nice (TOC depth and so 
on).  If these docs are merged into the current structure (assuming the lib 
makes it into Boost), not only will these options get lost, but I fear the 
current rather monolithic structure would render the docs virually 
unreadable.

Is there any way for us to say in bbv2:

"If you build from here, also go and build here" ?
