I'd definatly like an official policy. As one of the people that's been doing
some work in this area, I'd suggest:
1. enum's have to be overviewed, and each enumerated value has to be
explained.
2. Order is important, or readability is trashed. I've been using @brief,
detailed explanation, @param's, @return, @see, @author, @since.
3. Examples are A Good Thing.
4. Every UI element needs a picture.
5. Try to avoid humour and exclamation marks.
6. "make apidox" before you commit any code.
