Wording Guidelines

-
user generated content excluded
-
-
The word "C++" should occur no more than once on a page
-
user-generated content excluded
-
We want to minimize the number of times we use the word "Boost" on a page. Since the logo in the header has the word "Boost" in it, sometimes we will have no choice but to use the word at least twice on a page. But we should try to minimize the repetitions.
