This is the first time I take a look to the beta site and... it is green! :) Lets merge our branches!

Again I agree... If Rene shares with me his boostbook branch I can make a prove of concept and upload so we can discuss about it. In the banner there is a link to the boost main page in the boost logo. I really like that. Having the herb sutter quote in the main page is really nice, but for the docs it may be better to use that space for other things. What is the best way to use it? In my opinion with a google kind search bar in the right side of the banner.
