classpath-doc will contain the API docs for classpath in the future. They are not in there because of a bug in kaffe using too much memory when running gjdoc. This does not happen with gcj-4.0 but this is not in unstable yet. Providing a devhelp-book-java package might be useful too. Can you please file a wishlist bug for this ?
