OK, my comments were harsher than they should have been.  It's just that
I've seen a lot of harm caused by undocumented code over the years, some of
which evolved from private projects.  I therefore knee jerk try to squash
this sort of stuff whenever possible.  I didn't look at your code, but was
only responding to your comment about it not being documented.  My personal
opinion is that undocumented code is worse than no code.  Obviously others
disagree with that.

Reasonable documentation is a tool that allows code to be written more
quickly and with fewer errors, let alone the reduced maintainance time.  I
guess more people don't see it that way than I had thought.
