It was discussed on desktop-devel-list in August this year, and Murray
resurrected the thread two days ago.

What do you use for documentation in libxml?

It would be good to have little Howto sections in the proposal page that
refer to other documentation systems.  Murray, you said you use Doxygen
for gtkmm --- is that the case?  How would one add the "Since" and
"Deprecated" stuff to it?

Also, we probably need to pull abicheck.sh out of gtk+ and use it
elsewhere.  Any takers? :)
