You took me to your library and kissed me in the stacks

Grrr. Today I am updating some technical documentation. It is out of date, and very confusingly written. When I started, I thought it'd be about an hour's work.

That was yesterday morning.

I'd like to thump the idiot who originally wrote it.

Only, er, that seems to have been me :(

I feel there are good reasons why it's such a mess - I wrote the original docs when the thing-being-documented was in its bleeding-edge state, and I have added and tweaked and so on as it's changed. Sadly, it's now evolved to the point where the original basis of the docs is so outmoded that a complete redo-from-start is required.

However... keeping the docs up to date is my job, and I should have noticed what was happening rather earlier!
