I think this is an important point -- PDFs have to be *by library*. Full
date-time user/reference docs are 400 pages so all of boost would be
thousands. Up to now, I've been generating date-time PDFs and putting them on
my site which obviously isn't the ideal system. Personally I don't think we're
ready to solve this issue in time for 1.35 so I think we should take it as an
independent effort.
