Hey, we need bad guys :-) Some time ago it was discussed if we should host the Doxygen stuff on www.octave.org. In general most people thought it would be nice to have, but one mayor issue is the message it sends to put the Doxygen stuff on www.octave.org. It might give the impression that the C++ API is stable which is far from the case. So, the last time this was discussed it was decided (at least that's what I remember) that Doxygen should not go on www.octave.org until the API is more stable or at least until a subset of the API was declared stable. So, I would like have the Doxygen stuff on www.octave.org, but I'm not sure if that's possible. I guess I should start a thread on the maintainers list about this. If the Doxygen can't go on www.octave.org I still think it should be available at octave.sf.net. A lot of people like this documentation, so I think it should be available somewhere.
