+When possible, we provide scripts to extract API definitions,
+configuration or command line options from the source code.
+
+To simplify the documentation task, we keep all Documentation within
+this repository. It is possible to generate the docs (without installing
+any additional Proxmox packages) with:
+
+ make index.html
+
+We also generate an additional development package called
+'pve-doc-generator', which is used by other Proxmox VE package to
+generate manual pages at package build time.
+
+
+Common Macro definition in link:attributes.txt[]
+------------------------------------------------
+
+'asciidoc' allows us to define common macros, which can then be
+referred to using `{macro}`. We try to use this mechanism to improve
+consistency. For example, we defined a macro called `pve`, which
+expands to "Proxmox VE". The plan is to add more such definitions for
+terms which are used more than once.
+
+Autogenerated CLI Command Synopsis
+----------------------------------
+
+We generate the command line synopsis for all manual pages
+automatically. We can do that, because we have a full declarative
+definition of the {pve} API. I added those generated files
+('*-synopsis.adoc') to the git repository, so that it is possible to
+build the documentation without having a fully installed {pve}
+development environment.
