Wow! Great Andrew... this can really fuel the standard docs project.

I think that this is a very wise advice.
We have been informally discussing the fate of the Standard C++
Library Boosted Documentation in our community blog.
Jake and Stjepan have made some very important points.
One in particular was a revelation for me:
Stjepan said...
"I could see why maintaining standard C++ library documentation
as proposed would benefit Boost greatly. It would likely
become the (or one of the) standard library documentation sites,
and would immediately raise awareness of Boost to just about any
C++ programmer out there."

We should move further discussion here.
