Hi Guys,

Does anyone know of, or are there any plans for, a documentation 
parser/generator for puppet, akin to pydoc or javadoc?

In my opinion, one of the unsung advantages of managing systems via puppet 
is that you get a formal definition of your systems state which is only a 
hair-width away from being able to serve as system documentation.

For most of our key systems, we have a document listing installed packages 
and config - information that is already contained within my manifests. 
However, if I point my manager directly to our manifests I doubt he'd 
consider it sufficient. I suspect a pretty html page, containing basically 
the same info with some additional comments would be sufficient, however.
