I guess that would be beta.boost.org, the libraries are at: 
http://beta.boost.org/doc/libs/1_34_0

This brings up a whole list of subjective issues: Matias has been using his 
own customised style sheet that colors certain elements green, he also has 
his own set of funking looking admonishment and navigation graphics that I 
rather like :-)  Also since Matias has been helping various authors 
translate their docs to quickbook, these have been spreading Darwin-style 
through Boost.

My gut feeling is that we should have "one true stylesheet" used throughout?

As it happens Matias' style is kind of like Rene's beta website :-)  So I 
wonder if we can take the best bits of both?

So... here's my 2c worth:

I like all of Matias' images except for important.png and caution.png.  I 
also rather like Matias' green-colored borders - and they fit rather nicely 
with Rene's green banner title.

>From Rene: I like the green title banner with the patterned background, but 
I'm not so taken with the border around the navigation graphics, and I 
really don't like the styling used for the section titles: personally I'd 
rather keep what we have, even if they are a little bland :-)

I'm also unsure about the source-code highlighting used: this one really is 
subjective and depends a lot on which IDE you're used to I suspect, but I 
prefer the slightly larger font in the existing stylesheet, it might be the 
combination of small text and keywords-in-bold that doesn't work for me 
(though interestingly I'm used to IDE's that does put keywords in a bold 
font!).

Cheers, John.
