Re: "Documentation by paper"


    Which reminds me.  What happened to the proposal that was discussed in
    the last GCC summit to start adding doxygen markers to the source code
    comments?

I'd be very strongly *against* such a proposal.  I don't see anything but
the slightest advantage of such "external" documentation, certainly not
worth cluttering up code with "markers".

If there is a value to having such external documentation, let's teach it
how to read GCC's documentation style, which already has enough information.
