>Ah, I see. I had misunderstood this, and thought that somebody else wanted you to reduce your own comments.

No, the top brass don't really care, they just wanted me to produce a standardized schema for within-system documentation on the development side, mainly for future-legacies. Even that, they don't care about too much. What they really want is big stacks of Requirements (you can see their eyes light up when handed big piles of System Requirements :-) Fortunately, I'm out of the requirements loop, except to use them when building apps.
