I have not looked to much into either pydoc or epydoc. I tried to generate some documentations using both. After I removed the installation, it seemed that old .pyc files caused some trouble, I managed to build some nice documentation with epydoc. Take a look at: <http://folk.uio.no/hake/dolfin_doc> For a closer look. We (me and Martin) has tried to make new docstring written in epytext markup language. I see that this is caught by the generated epydocs but not all of it, due to wrong syntax and other embarrassing stuff. It should be possible to automagically generate these files and hand to the community in the same manner as the C++ references are generated. I got some warnings though during the compilation, typically: compile_expressions is shadowed by compile_expressions so it does not like us importing a function with the same name as the module, which it is imported from. We do this a lot. Any objections for changing the name of the python modules?
