I've created a nice makefile for documentation. After making any changes to the files in the python directory You can just go to doc directory and perform make install (it will create all html files and upload them to SF - they are available at http://gnuccess.sf.net/doc/\).
You will also need to guess my password or change the variable $(USER) in the makefile ;)
BTW. I don't know if it's just me or pydoc SUCKS. I've worked with javadoc, lpdoc and doxygene and they're all a whole lot BETTER
