Thanks for the pointer.<BR>
<BR>
We may be victim of the pendulum syndrome. The "too many formats" replaced<BR>
with "one size fits all". <BR>
<BR>
It would be better for the project if there were some consistency in the chosen format.<BR>
It should not be "random" or based on what the developer happens to be more<BR>
familiar with.<BR>
<BR>
Some heuristics based on content type, size, etc... <BR>
<BR>
Perhaps doxygen should also be considered in some cases. <BR>
I have not given any thoughts yet, but protocols are heavy on public api<BR>
so they seem to be good candidates. Having the code and the docs in the source<BR>
could go a long way in terms keeping them in sync.<BR>
