Uhm. You don't put doc writing chores on the backs of thoe who program
for a living...especially since many programmers have a revulsion to
writing (few and far between are those souls who grasp
that writing and programming are near kin because they are both are
expressions of language). If you mean just to get things down, even
then it's too late -- the code's already written; sentiment will be
"My job's done here." The current process (speaking from what I've
been reading here on the mailing list) seems to be much better -- you
get involved as the code's being written; you describe the
architecture and define your terms again, as much as is possible, as
early as you can. Much better to leave the writing to those who well,
got their degrees in that, and actually like doing it....:)
