Oh, if the library users have to read through the c++ then we are
really lacking some developer documentation.

I cannot recommend any intermediate level c++ books however there
should be plenty of online resources like tutorials on object-oriented
programming in c++ (that is what I would consider as intermediate
level of c++).

Any help with PyQGIS documentation would be highly appreciated!
