I guess, that navidoc is less important to the project's 
oweners/financiers, but it's the only project I know enough to talk about 
it :) So, if we'll have enough time, I could try to present it.

- navidoc as byproduct of our project
  + components/features added, when needed
  + built primarly for this project, currently 
    being moved to independent project, "easily"
    used also elsewhere
  + independent from the other project
  + paper submitted to HT03
- lightweight freesoftware tools/toolchains to 
  support our documentation (and therefore development)
  + focusing to navidoc itself
    - lexical UML written within other documentation (ReST)
    - linking different documentations using UML diagrams
    - himalia
  + pegboard could be mentioned
 (+ out version of docutils latex writer)
 (+ also homepage tools, i.e. navbar, will be part of navidoc)

Should we have those abstracts soon for advertisement?

"Navidoc is a collection of lightweight tools built to support our 
project's documentation. Navidoc provides readily-authored language to
describe UML diagrams lexically within design documentation. Navidoc could 
also expand diagrams to work as multi-ended links, to 
hypertextually connect design documentation to Javadoc generated 
documentation. The example of Navidoc enhanced documentation could be 
found at http://himalia.it.jyu.fi/gzzdoc/";
