[Bayes++] docs and installation

[Nicola B. <nb...@es...>]

hi there,

i was wandering why none of the comments in the source files are included by 
doxygen to generate the documentation. i thought it was a problem of my 
doxygen version, but then i noticed that also the documentation on the 
website has the same problem...

another thing i'd like to point out is that the installation procedure, based 
on boost-jam, is not exactly the most straightforward. a classic "configure 
-> make -> make install" would be surely preferable...

i believe the lack of documentation and the tedious installation keep away 
lots of potential users, which probably prefer to choose a more approachable 
library like BFL. this is really a pity, even because i think Bayes++ has a 
more elegant and better performing code. i'm writing this because i've 
recently done some nice work using Bayes++, but i feel like i am only one of 
the very few users (or so it seems from the mailing list, at least...)

hope to see some developments soon
cheers
