Code Readability: Documentation vs. Refactoring

Technical documentation of the code/project seems like a worthy goal. After all, if we aren't living in a vacuum someone will need to understand our code/design and maintain it, use it to develop new stuffm, etc.

On the other hand writing documentation can get tedious, boring, hard to maintain, and whatnot -- so you run across all sorts of ways to deal with it.
