If we keep it to /// we can use the current C# compiler to get the
documentation out..

Agree that we should keep the comments nice looking also..

I like more the XML-style than the SDK style.

ie, XML (ie, I like more).

// <summary>
//   This is a really nice summary.  It is nice because I wrote it.
//   I wish other summaries were as nice as I am.
// </summary>

ie, .NET SDK (ie, do not like)

// <summary> 
//   I am an ugly looking summary</summary> <return-value>god, what do
// I return?</return-value>

I am exagearating a bit, but you get the idea.

Miguel.
