Autogenerate "user" docs about "plugins" from code
--------------------------------------------------

                 Key: SOLR-555
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SOLR-555
             Project: Solr
          Issue Type: Improvement
            Reporter: Hoss Man
            Assignee: Hoss Man


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.
