It depends on nothing.   Stopping all forward movement as a tactic to
improve documentation will kill the project.

Please listen.  I agree that documentation should be improved, and I agree
that we should be planning for it.  We're on the same page there.

But that particular plan?  Stop all development until *ALL* features
documented?  Shows no understanding of developers!  It will kill the
project.

How much history in the code?  How many undocumented features?

All I'm suggesting is we focus on sane proposals that will produce
tangible, positive results.
