RE: maintaining a list of changes in User Guides between versions

["Gordon McLean" <Gordon -dot- McLean -at- GrahamTechnology -dot- com>]

I'd use that request and find out what it is the customer wanted.

Previously I have provided a list of 'major' changes to the documentation,
listing new sections (limiting to chapter and H1 levels) or major updates
due to new functionality (excluding 'expected' changes through UI). It's the
kind of thing you can pretty much draw up at the start of project (based on
plans), a then a revision towards the end to reflect reality and you are
good to go.

But of course, as ever, depends on what the customer wants/is expecting.

Beth,
Actually, it is vaguely to do with a discussion of  some sort of request
from outside the company and this must have come up as a requirement for
documentation delivered. So I wondered, "Should I be doing this? Will
someone ask me to do this soon? Is everyone doing it except me? If so, what
will I answer when they ask me to document changes in the UGs?"
