In that case, the writer would be in hot water with me. I don't
expect my writers to be telepathic, but I do expect them to
be members of the development team for projects they're
working on, to attend project team meetings, be up on the
schedules, issues, etc., and to generally be part of "everyone involved."
In cases where writer resources have been in short supply (and when are they *not?*) and the rest of the development team has been unwilling to include the writer ("we don't have
anything for you to document yet, go away"), I have gone to the project manager, and in some cases, that manager's manager) to deliver the news that I was reassigning their writer to another project and that I would see who was available to support their project when they were ready.

What if instead it's "everyone
involved in the product knew two weeks ago that Linux was out... but
we never bothered to tell the TW until now (and how come you didn't
figure it out telepathically, anyway?)"
