While ddoc is great (just by virtue of being there by default), 
Doxygen (and by extension DoxyPress) have some really nice 
features that are sorely missed when I'm using ddoc. Its 
cross-referencing, dependency graph, and annotated code abilities 
beat out every other "auto" documentation system I've used. I've 
used it often in the past on Java and C# projects, in spite of 
the dedicated doc tools those languages have (JavaDoc and Visual 
Studio's XML comment system, respectively).

I'd use it in an instant if it could parse D and ddoc-style 
comments.

If only there were more hours in the day...
