re: Must be comfortable and display confidence in performing Real-Time
editing functions in front of customers. ... lead me to believe that what's
being referred to is video editing
When the Military accepts one of our products, the process is to check its
use, maintenance, etc. via a session in which a Military representative
reads the manual and others perform the procedures. Our manual writer (and
our developers/engineers) is present and often is asked--in front of
customers--to make changes to the manual. Sometimes that can mean coming up
with a new paragraph on the spot.
This is what the phrase in question reminds me of. The bottom line is the
customers determine what the manual says.
