I'd like to see Javadoc tags converted to an XML format, which is the convention in .NET languages. Of course, Java predated XML, so an XML format wasn't an option "in the day".

  XSLT could be used to filter out deprected stuff, produce html etc... this would be very cool.

  XML isn't everything everyone says it is. Personally, I don't really care what javadoc generates as long as it look the same, but I ***don't*** want to write XML in comments. That's too much typing.

  Then you can also use some XSLT to filter out deprecated stuff
