By "outdated" I mean that
https://github.com/boostorg/website/blob/master/feed/history/boost_1_76_0.qbk
has more info

You have to look at
https://www.boost.org/users/history/in_progress.html until 1.76.0 is
actually released.

Until then, https://www.boost.org/users/history/version_1_76_0.html
will only show what was in the QBK at the point that specific beta
(beta 1 in this case) was made.

Oh, now I see. Thanks!

However all the additional changes at the "in_progress" page do relate to
the first beta. There are multiple commits from different developers.

As I see the current logic could be simplified
* always show the latest changes in version_*_*
* add a section "Post beta changes" into the inital template
* drop the "in_progress" page

In that way:
* users will get the information faster
* Boost developers would be less confused by missing data in changelog
(probably that's not a big win and affects only one developer :-) )
* users would be confused less by similar pages

https://github.com/boostorg/website is the place to make a pull
request implementing any of the above, or anything else. :)
