The doxygen stuff is developer documentation, and
maybe someday library documentation.  The audience
is developers.  Updating that kind of low-level of
documentation shakes loose issues with the internals.

The audience for texi documentation is OpenOCD users.
It covers server configuration, commands, and so on.
Updating that level of documentation shakes loose
publicly visible functional holes.  (Like, until
recently, having no NAND support ...)

So both types of update can go in parallel.  I'm
pointing out, however, that if the texi docs don't
list a feature, it effectively doesn't exist except
to a *very* small community of developers.  But the
whole point of an 0.2.0 release is to make work be
available to a *larger* community (of users).

Hope that helps....
