-------------------------------------

Hossman:

Is there stuff worth keeping here? Doc improvement is really worthwhile, but 
this has lingered for a looong time. Or should we close it since it hasn't been 
touched in so long?
                
> Autogenerate "user" docs about "plugins" from code

> Our current strategy of using javadocs for "developer" documentation and the 
> wiki for documenting "user" features only gets us so far -- among other 
> things, it makes it hard to include the "user" documentation in our releases, 
> but it also results in a disconnect between when code changes and when 
> documentation gets updated.
> in an ideal world, "user" documentation would live in the code right along 
> side the implementation, just like with javadocs -- but the standard set of 
> information displayed by javadocs isn't very user friendly.  we should find a 
> better way to allow us to "edit" the info about how to use a plugin right 
> along side the code for that plugin and generate user friendly documentation 
> from that.
