Hmm.. I should already be in the release. But I tried browsing to it on the master doc preview and it's not there :-( -- -- Rene Rivera -- Grafik - Don't Assume Anything -- Robot Dreams - http://robot-dreams.net

It has never been there in past releases from the main index.html page. I brought this up before and it was ignored.

Which is the main index.html page?

:-( Sorry about that, totally my fault for either ignoring it or not noticing it. -- -- Rene Rivera -- Grafik - Don't Assume Anything -- Robot Dreams - http://robot-dreams.net

I don't see it in: https://github.com/boostorg/website/issues If we don't record these things, and instead just put them on the mailing list, the likelihood they will not be completed is much higher. - Jim

It is not really a website/webpage issue but a distribution issue. The distribution has an index.html, which gives the doc for the distribution, and the link in the doc for the Tool Boost.Build never actually exists. I mentioned this on a prior post but nobody responded so I did not push the issue further. I am glad someone else has finally mentioned this again and others now realize it.

This index.html? https://github.com/boostorg/boost/blob/master/index.html Or some other one? -- -- Rene Rivera -- Grafik - Don't Assume Anything -- Robot Dreams - http://robot-dreams.net

Are we talking about https://boostorg.github.io/build/? It doesn't seem to be part of the release and can be found on the right panel under "Tools" on the https://www.boost.org/doc/libs/1_68_0/ page (which, I assume, will look similarly when 1.69 is out).
