Most documentation is a waste of time and money. It is expensive to produce. It is frequently not maintained, rendering it useless. And it makes two very "iffy" assumptions: one that the author knows how to write and two that the reader has a basis for comprehension.
Heresy? Perhaps. My response to documentation (or lack of it) is that if I am going to fix your code or expand it or whatever, I had better be smart enough to understand what is there. If I cannot do that from looking at the source code and perhaps a few test cases, then I should not be messing with the stuff. Would you want to be under the care of a medical doctor who had to rely on his class notes? Agile programming? It's an oxymoron. If one ordinary woman can give birth to a child in nine months, nine agile women should be able to do it in one month.
