Ah, you seem to be right. In this case, I think I don't even understand the purpose of the links in boost/libs/libraries.htm. Can anyone shed light on this?
That libraries.htm page is what people see when they visit: http://www.boost.org/libs
The library root index.html is what people see when visiting: http://www.boost.org/libs/<library>
Almost every library's index.html is just the same boilerplate with a different meta redirect to that library's documentation index. I wish that documentation index link could be specified in the library's .boost file instead of requiring every library to have that index.html.
Ah, I understand now. Thanks for the explanation. Having an index.html at the root of a library is IMO very hacky (why should a library's layout be affected by the need for boost.org to redirect stuff around?), but changing this should be attempted in a different discussion. Regards, Louis
