New submission from anatoly techtonik techtonik@gmail.com:

The abundance of methods and hierarchy depth of various servers from "Internet Protocols and Support" section makes it extremely hard to navigate information. You need a strong OOP background to be able to use this doc effectively, as examples are not intuitive otherwise.

Usually you need a decent IDE (such as Eclipse) to get a picture of class hierarchy and a table of all available methods with a mark where they were inherited from.

Such table (at least Class Hierarchy view screenshot from Eclipse) should be available in reference for descendant classes.
