Hmm, i thought of something simpler.. For example, each driver source
file could have a special section that contains the necessary infos for
the card matrix. Then a script to get the info from the source files and
puts it together to a html page would be enough.. This is only one
example, of course.. An sql database is probably overkill. We have
really static data here [after it's once generated]. Updates could then
be done like once a week or even daily which comes down to just running
a script that grabs the source from cvs and does its thing..
I don't know how easy this would be to create the rest of the docs but
some parts of it are already automated, like the api doc creation,
etc...

I was astonished to see, that the website is not generated
automagically[i saw patches to the soundcard matrix, etc..]. I don't
know much about content management systems, etc, but i wonder if
this wouldn't save great hassles in the future..
Yes I have been thinking about it today too. The main thing is someone
has to roll up their sleeves. However I don't think it will be too
much work. I'm trying to decide if it should be a simple text based
form or a mysql database. Obviously the latter is more work but will
be much faster (if it matters).
