That's a brilliant idea - I tried getting this to work when I first
started with computers, and had to give up on it
(mainly because in those days I had enough trouble getting my head

Has anyone tried using javadoc on the jars to regenerate a doc tree?
This would have the benefit of integrating references between APIs.
