[ndoc-devel] Custom documentation topics with NDoc and MsdnDocumenter

[Atanas I. <ata...@gm...>]

Hi All,

I'm responsible for a small team, which works on another open source projec=
t
(http://sourceforge.net/projects/cybercore). However, as we all know, the
whole effort is of a little value without a proper documentation...

When it comes to documentation, NDoc is the tool which will play the centra=
l
role (no surprises here). The problem is that currently NDoc can be used fo=
r
only what I call "API refernce", which is far away from what I
consider to be the necessary minimum.

So I've assigned to one of the developers the task to "upgrade" the msdn
documenter in such a way, which will permit us to create custom topic trees
in the TOC - they will lead to not-directly-code-related info (but with
possible liks to the API reference). Here is the place to say, that she
started to show some quite serious pregress...

Regarding all this, I would like to ask 2 questions:
- Is there something like this already realized? I do not like the
possibility to come out with a re-invented wheel at the end...
- Because this "enchancement" seems like a very serious candidate for
contribution, is there such planned feature (i.e. - is there a need for suc=
h
a contribution)?
