What the actual license should be of something is not for you to decide, that is up to St. IGNUcius and the maintainer of the software. How about we leave it to them to say what should or shouldn't be?

The reference is to the well drafted Information for Maintainers of GNU Software that is available here: https://www.gnu.org/prep/maintain/maintain.html There is no reference to "simple format" in that document. You clearly have some agenda, with this continued misrepresentation, misreading, and continued imagined ideas of what the GFDL says. Such files are not transparent, as there are limitations imposed to read the documentation. One such limitation is that one need to install the Doxygen software, to process the source code to read the documentation, to generate the HTML to read the documentation. Doygen input falls under the category of "transparant copy". âTransparentâ copy of the Document means a machine-readable copy, Doxygen is machine-readable. represented in a format whose specification is available to the general public, Doxygen syntax, and format is specified in the Doxygen manual which is available to the general public. that is suitable for revising the document straightforwardly with generic text editors Doxygen is a plain text format with some syntactical elements like GNU Texinfo, LaTeX, TeX, etc. or (for images composed of pixels) generic paint programs or (for drawings) some widely available drawing editor, That depends on the actual manual content, but the images in GNU radio are editable using GIMP (they are PNG files). Doxygen, like Texinfo, references the file using the \image command (i.e. @image command in Texinfo). and that is suitable for input to text formatters or for automatic translation to a variety of formats suitable for input to text formatters. The input is suitable for the Doxygen processing utility to output other formats -- for example HTML. Doxygen is also free software.
