Hello Andrew Thanks for looking at this issue. On my side, I use the javadoc generated by Jenkins build every days. I often fix formatting issues and wait for the next Jenkins build for seeing if the fix worked. This is especially useful in class javadoc having tables, matrices or mathematical formulas.
I also use Javadoc for getting API feedback from the community: I provide some skeleton classes with lot of Javadoc, send the link to the developer mailing list for comments, modify the API according feedback, wait for Jenkins to update the javadoc, etc. in an iterative process. Would such workflow still be applicable?
