Lars George commented on HBASE-2006:
------------------------------------

I am with Stack here, the external documents tend to get outdated soon. This 
would be probably different if we were on HBase 3.0.0 or so. Since we are not I 
always wondered if there is no way to use a XSLT transformation that takes the 
hbase-default.xml and converts it into a nicely tabled (as you suggest) JavaDoc 
page up in docs? So that the "ant docs" always creates a current copy and which 
is linked to the API docs. That way the Wiki could simply point to that page up 
in the repo and never be outdated. Would that work?

> There is nowhere on the site or wiki a detailed examination of the parameters 
> behind HBase. You have to open hbase-default.xml to see them and their 
> descriptions. A page on the wiki with descriptions would be nice
