Exactly.  This gets at the point I was trying to make.  It's not "make
these comments, magically get documentation".  It's "make these
comments, write the rest of your documentation in the right XML
markup, get {pdf,html,man,etc,etc,etc} output".  So the DM work is a
good reason / candidate to add the infrastructure (sine we already
have design docs).  And someone could take the kernel mtdnand
template, update it with verbage about how we shim that in and also
get good docs.  Other subsystems or "big" things could also make use
of this.
