TechWhirl (TECHWR-L) is a resource for technical writing and technical communications professionals of all experience levels and in all industries to share their experiences and acquire information.
For two decades, technical communicators have turned to TechWhirl to ask and answer questions about the always-changing world of technical communications, such as tools, skills, career paths, methodologies, and emerging industries. The TechWhirl Archives and magazine, created for, by and about technical writers, offer a wealth of knowledge to everyone with an interest in any aspect of technical communications.
I actually don't think Harry's question was
out-of-line at all. Perhaps there is such a thing as
"intensive documentation." (I'm sure it's only a
matter of time until there is. Perhaps it's part of
Simplified English or Minimalist Documenation. :-) )
Better to ask than assume. And why assume that the
poster made a mistake, so post only privately? I often
wonder about a particular question posted by someone
else, so prefer not to see "Reply to me off-list."
All the best,
Brian
