I guess, but it doesn't really matter because you can do almost
anything with it under boost without owning it.

Does't matter, because once it's been licensed under boost you can
always use it under boost.

You can relicense it to anything boost is compatible with (GPL, BSD,
proprietary license) but you can't remove the restrictions that are
placed on it by boost.  ie You can't remove the attribution from the
source and then redistribute it, whereas you could if you owned the
copyright.
