Doxygen chatter made me remember something I was interested in maintaining.
Graphviz, which is the source of the 'dot' program which doxygen can use to
produce some very nice inheritance diagrams.
I guess the main issue I wondered about was whether the at&t 'open source'
licence used is compatible with the practicalities and ethos of the
setup.exe distribution. Its distributed as part of debian 'non-free' so I
imagine it can't be too bad, but I'm not one to understand legalize all that
well.

Gareth
