Yeah, Doxygen (and JavaDoc) both result in code that's more sparse than
I care for, making it more difficult for maintainers. For users of the
code, though, the indices and cross-reference tables that result are
quite valuable.
I would rather prefer documenting the necessary/important
functions by hand in a DragonFly Kernel Handbook, which keeps
things clean, and also allows detailed explanations.
I have already tried doxygen'ing the DFly source code, and it
is not healthy site at all!
