A **second** requirement from the metadata format is the availability of tools to generate various formats of documentation: - as far as I can tell OSGi Declarative Services do not have such tools, - the was an [Eclipse EMF documentation generator](https://www.eclipse.org/forums/index.php/t/1110506/), but it does not seem available at the moment, - [Tomcat Configuration Reference](https://tomcat.apache.org/tomcat-9.0-doc/config/index.html), which was the main inspiration for this task is actually generated manually (cf. [git repository](https://github.com/apache/tomcat/tree/main/webapps/docs/config)). This leaves Modello that has an [impressive number of generators](https://codehaus-plexus.github.io/modello/modello-plugins/index.html) and the custom Maven Plugin descriptor as contenders. The [documentation of Maven Plugin descriptor](https://maven.apache.org/ref/3.9.5/maven-plugin-api/plugin.html) is actually generated by Modello. -- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
