19 | | Reflecting on this, I feel this might be related to the pressures of trying to do thing as quickly as possible, to keep costs down (see for example ticket:629#comment:11) -- the documentation is often the thing that is doesn't get done as comprehensively as it could be, because it is time consuming. It doesn't seem right that a job that, for example, takes perhaps 20 seconds to do might take 5 mins to document. I'll try to do more, better documentation (ie distil the documentation in the ticket comments into the wiki pages) in the future and resist the pressure to skip it to keep the time down. |
