> Why isn't there an official Doxyfile and an official API reference website?
Because the source tree is always the most up-to-date source tree. The API is obsolete almost as soon as it's published. The API tends to change (not drastically) every 8-12 weeks (in my estimation). The v8 team does not intend to support old versions/APIs for very long, usually about less than 12 months (again, in my estimation). Essentially, as soon as Chrome creates an API requirement, v8 goes about fulfilling it, when it's fulfilled, the Chrome team goes about porting to the new API. It's pretty amazing how quickly and consistently they can iterate and innovate. I mean, you see how quickly you update your Chrome versions right? Some of the APIs are probably less than a month old by the time they hit Chrome -stable. Pace blows away the old Spider Monkey development model I had watched in the late 90s up until about 5 years ago. They used to rev every 9-18 months on dot minor releases (and never made it to 2.0). To get a sense, click the CL links on their API Changelog [0] (that's what I'm calling it).
