Subject: [boost] [container] documentation

Hi Ion,
I read over the documentation for Container. Looks like a neat library. I like the idea of a next gen STL in Boost.
In the documentation, I think the recursive containers section could spell out what's going on here - I didn't catch it at first. It could just say "Recursive data structures contain elements of their own type." Perhaps with a link to http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Recursive_data_type. Pretty cool.
Didn't this grow out of Interprocess? I'm wondering if it has somehow an improved contract with the allocator to support shared memory - or is that worth talking about?
Cheers,
Gordon
