Did you look at the NumPy guidelines Ralf posted?:
http://projects.scipy.org/numpy/wiki/CodingStyleGuidelines

Those look very clean to me, and fairly similar to what we already do in
the ReST docs.

Because epydoc works with tags rather than sections, it looks a lot
"noisier" to me when reading the plain text version.

Cheers,
