Yes; see:

We currently only have documentation for en...

I'm not sure what we'd do if there were a serious effort to translate
the documentation into another language, though I'm not sure I'd want
them in the same svn tree....

No, these docs have been stored in svn for years, just in the monodoc
module.  Furthermore, the only bits that can be done at compile time is
stub generation; if you want anything *useful* (i.e. not stubs), you
can't do that at compile time unless you use inline XML documentation
comments, which *most* types don't use.  Consequently, this can't really
be done solely at compile time.
