After I finish what I'm planing to do, I will try to look/investigate for such tracking mechanism and if necessary, build a new documentation tool (like the doxygen) especially dedicated for gnuradio. In the mean time, we had to finish something in order to move away from square one and step into square two.

To make people appreciate/participate in your work, they have to understand what your doing. Since the gnuradio is something fantastic, this means, that we have no option to be tired of doing the drudgery and repetitive parts of the documentation.
