I am not aware of any one currently working on it.

In fact, we have been discussing this a few days ago. Basically the
problem is as follows: The outcome of the plugin would still have to be
the component declaration files. But the settings could as well be
defined by annotations instead of JavaDoc tags.

And yes, I think, the plugin would certainly be able to cope with the
annotation style, too.

If you would take a stab at it and provide a patch (however partial this
may be at first), it would certainly be welcomed.

Regards
Felix
