Folks,
Is anyone stuck like me, in choosing between SandCastle (the new MS doc
support) and NDoc 2.0 framework?
Ive downloaded NDoc 2.0 but it does not compile quite well. On the other
hand, SandCastle seems to be too childish to use it for real in professional
app...

Any opinions?

I would say wait a little longer for SandCastle. They claim that it is the
tool MS used to generate all of the FCL documentation, so I think it is not
so childish...

If you have to deliver NOW, and sandcastle doesn't cut it, go for a
commercial offering. The least saddest solution I could find (which
also has some weird bugs, but at least it seems to produce a document
in most cases) is documentx 5.

If you can wait a little longer, wait for sandcastle and a gui
frontend.
