I think it is a very good idea for people to at least write javadoc comments
of equivalent quality to Sun's while writing the actual classes themselves.
Perhaps Paul is an exception to the rule, but I don't think most programmers
particularly enjoy documentation. By creating the docs as we go, we reduce
the pain involved and increase the likelihood that the documentation job
will get done.
