Deal, at the condition that the code comes before I write the docstrings ;-)
[ I like this deal: it's always better for someone else to write the
  docstrings, so at least 2 persons need to agree on what they think the
  code does (assuming the author of the code checks the resulting docstrings).  ]

I'm willing to tweak my vocabulary.
