reStructuredText
For the eZ components we are currently writing introductionary tutorials for each component. These tutorials should be a first start in understanding the abilities of each specific component without having to go through the full API documentation.
As good programmers we hate to document and thus the easier we can make the process the better documentation we will get. For our internal documents we use plain text files in SVN, describing guidelines and conventions. Those text files are formatted using reStructuredText , a format used by the Python community. It is a very easy to remember syntax, wiki-like, and it is easy to convert to HTML. We also decided to used the same format for our tutorials because it is such an easy format. With a specific PHP script we generate HTML from the tutorials, and add links to the other documentation that is generated by phpDocumentor from our inline API documentation.
Comments
Did you also check markdown and what where your reasons to choose restructured text?
Basically because some of us were already familiar with it. For example I've been using it to document Xdebug's DBGp protocol (http://xdebug.org/docs-dbgp.php). I had also never heard of markdown before, but their syntax seems to be very similar to the one that reStructuredText uses.
Another important benefit of using reStructuredText is that the documentation file (source) without parsing is also very readable.

But I think my favourite photo was of this Carrion Crow in flight.
The new birds I saw, were mostly too far away to get good photos.
But I saw my first Spoonbill, Corn Bunting, and a flock of Black-tailed Godwits.
I had a lovely walk around RSPB Bowers Marsh yesterday, where I saw some expected birds, and a bunch of new species.
When I got there, there was this welcome committee of Starlings.
