I'm not in favor of having everything split per language, especially because that's also the best way to keep some uniformity. And also save us from duplication. The Java doc might wrong in keep its summary on its side. Maybe we should move %define and %code in the appendice. I don't know, I should ask for other people's opinion. Cheers!
