Btw., the webhelp there is generated from the following build
systems/customization layers if you wanted to dig into the code for
inspiration:

https://github.com/stackforge/clouddocs-maven-plugin
https://github.com/rackerlabs/olink-maven-plugin

The header-as-a-service code was never made public, but more due to not
getting around to making it public than an unwillingness to share.
