Hey Richard,

Yep, it’s exactly how you’ve described. The main emphasis is on writing 
documentation that can be verified through tests and so if the api changes, 
then the documentation can be fixed accordingly.

The grenada project looks to be very ambitious in it’s scope and yeah, it’ll be 
amazing to have a hoogle-like search engine for clojure.

btw… is datadoc a grenada thing or a java thing?
