I find embedded documentation (and excessive comments) problematic for that exact reason. We're never going to make them consistent. Stepping back a little; I think we agree that the API, being the main interface outside of VPP, should have good documentation. I don't think doxygen tags in the .api files can ever be that. If you agree with that, do you have better suggestions? Given that we have multiple language bindings, interactive documentation like what Swagger has might be one option? Best regards, Ole
