Sorry, I was out of town with not internet access.

I looked into this and while boost-jam should be removed as a dependency of
boost, I think we should keep the boost-jam spell. bjam can be used as an
alternative to make, cmake, etc. I am not aware of any large projects using
it.
Given the alternatives, I'm not sure why you would. However, a user may wish
to
use it for one of their own projects.

That said, the chances of anyone ever using boost-jam is most-likely very low.
It seems that very few people ever use it. Should it not be maintained it I
vote it be depreciated. There are already enough spells in the grimoire that
are unmaintained and no longer cast properly.

For the sake of supporting as much as we can, I will try to maintain boost-jam
every now and again, if no one else wishes to. I will remove boost's
dependency
on boost-jam and update boost-jam in a bit. However, I have no qualms if
anyone
wishes to depreciate it.
