Just last night Adymo decided to restrict the API documentation contents
to three directories:
INPUT = doc/api \
lib \
buildtools/projectmanager/interfaces
That removes a ton on unnecessary stuff from the API and makes it a real
API
I'm considering doing a .tag file out of it and build (with doxygen) another
set of documents (call it source documentation if you want) that has all the
non important documentation.
BTW doxygen produces a log file every night:
