This external documentation for pyVmomi was generated using Googly Docs (aka Google Standard Documentation) which renders very cleanly in GitHub. Internal documentation for a class should be done in Sphinx format because tools like pyCharm and Eclipse can use that documentation as a hint for code completion. Note: External docs as Googly Docs, internal docs as Sphinx. Closes bug#15
