I disagree. Such documentation is rarely going to exactly match a
checked-out version of IMP, but right now we can at least guarantee that
the nightly build docs match the nightly build code. If somebody wants
docs that match their checkout, they can just say "scons doc". doxygen
is not an unreasonable dependency for this.

On the contrary, the rule of thumb is still that builds should not be
broken for more than 3 days. Otherwise the SVN trunk becomes useless for
everybody. I will continue to encourage people to fix their code if they
break the builds.

Of course - a release would be pretty useless otherwise!
