I've been following this thread with interest, and have set the wheels
in motion to have DBus interfaces documented - to start with, I plan to
document one module in HAF to understand the process and document it,
and then let ye all loose documenting the rest of them :)

If we have an easy way for the interfaces to be documented, I'm sure
that the relevant developers in Nokia will see the value & help us out.

Great! Any chance that you could put this is the main Maemo wiki,
please? The issue with d-feet or similar is that there is no semantic
information associated with the interfaces.

I'd really be happier with this in the Maemo wiki, if you don't mind. We
could even link it from the Documentation page.

Thanks!
Dave.
