-Many boost libraries are implemented entirely within their header

-list of <code>#include</code> search directories.
+Boost does not yet have a standardized installation process. There has
+been some interest in developing one; as of this writing <a

+coordinate and is gathering volunteers. If you have expertise in this

-For example, using Windows 2000, if you have unzipped release 1.20.2
-from boost_all.zip into the top level directory of your C drive, for
-Borland, GCC, and Metrowerks compilers add '-Ic:/boost_1_20_2' to the
-compiler command line, and for the Microsoft compiler add '/I
-"c:/boost_1_20_2"'.  For IDE's, add 'c:/boost_1_20_2' (or whatever you
-have renamed it to) to the search list using the appropriate GUI
-dialog.

+That said, preparing to use Boost in a development project is
+relatively straightforward. Most boost libraries are implemented
+entirely within their header files.  The only preparation for their
+use is to add the boost root directory to your compiler's list of
+<code>#include&lt;...&gt;</code> search paths. For example,
+using Windows 2000, if you have unzipped release 1.28.0 from
+boost_all.zip into the top level directory of your C drive, adding
+'-Ic:/boost_1_28_0' to the command line of most compilers is
+sufficient.
