<h2><a name="standards-conforming" id="standards-conforming">Standards
Conforming</a> Documentation</h2>
<p>The documentation structure required for the standard is an
effective way to describe the technical specifications for a
library. Although terse, that format is familiar to many Boost
users and is far more precise than most ad hoc formats.
This section (apart from the introduction) is taken from the
C++ standard's method of description (Section 17.3). The
<a href="#more">following section</a> fleshes this out with
more detail. Note
that Standard proposals must include full standardese wording,
which the committee will not do for you, to be accepted. That
level of detail is not expected of Boost library
documentation.</p>
