Working for a software company with project deployment engineers seldom
in the office
How do you publish updates about your documentation so that your ppl can
access it?
How do you communicate these to them? Email? FTP? Automated tool?
Often I end up having to email documents to ppl, I think it could be a
misuse of email though.
I am currently experimenting with sharepoint. I am putting the docs in
two locations one in a standard public shared folder on the local
network, the other in a document library in sharepoint. Its hard work.
The source of the documents is stored in our code library server.
Do other ppl do it this way or am I fussing for nothing? I project to
see issues with this method.
