our most authoritative description of fields and nuance is the thrift. Is there some way we can parse it into markdown or something so that there's a human readable copy on zipkin.io?

ex.

Often it is the case that people ask questions we already have answers to. For starters, let's make the thrift doc known!

offline chat with @basvanbeek maybe we can compile to java, then java to markdown

Or maybe even write a Thrift-Markdown compiler! Adding to my todo list, no commitment for now.

Soo... this is somewhat embarrassing, but it turns out Thrift has (and has, for pretty much forever had) an HTML generator. Just opened a PR in openzipkin.github.io using it.

Closing as fixed with openzipkin/openzipkin.github.io#98, reopen if I missed something.
