2) Register docs not through the main monodoc module. Monodoc has wonderful editing facilities, useful for .net projects outside of just mono + gtk-sharp. If it were easy/possible to register zip files in a way other than through the one .xml file, that would make it far easier. As it stands even now, the debugger puts docs into place that monodoc wont load for some reason. We could even potentially remove the need for the xml file and have some special file put into the .zip file that monodoc looks for to identify why sort of provider to use. This is another change that should be hidden from the various monodoc.dll consumers.
The warning that you see is only a warning for applying *patches*, so it is a warning that today only applies to me (as the sole administrator of the public server).
I was talking about monodoc/browser/monodoc.xml, which appears to be part of how monodoc figures out what to load and how to do it. This makes project X unable to easily install documentation that monodoc will just find. I could be wrong, and that xml file isnt used for loading at all, but I am pretty sure it is. That is what im talking about needing to change, to make monodoc able to display docs for installed documentation of any kind, not just stuff we publish.
As far as I could see, there's a node called "various" in monodoc.xml. I think the intention is that other projects plug their documentation under this category; please someone at Novell correct me if I'm wrong.
You can safely ignore this.
The rest, I agree with you, but its not something doable in the 1.0 timeline.
Absolutely agree :)
