I'm in the process of converting a project to use Sphinx for documentation, and would like to use the Numpy docstring standard with its sections etc. It appears, however, that the numpydoc sphinxext is not installed but merely sits in doc/sphinxext. I see that scipy uses an SVN external to get at this stuff, but I'd prefer not to do that if possible (my project may not live in SVN forever). I see that numpydoc is separately installable (it has a setup.py), but then I assume users of my project who wish to build the docs must download the numpy source and know to explicitly install the numpydoc package.
Are there plans to install the numpydoc extension under the numpy install tree somewhere so that other projects can use it, simply by having numpy installed? This is what we do with the plot_directive in matplotlib. Is there a reason that's not a good idea for numpy? Or is there a way for my project to use it that I'm missing?
