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.
Putting open-source documentation behind a login would seem likely to
confuse customers, who expect open documentation. Getting people to
pay for documentation seems like an even worse business model than
trying to get them to pay for support.
The stuff I've been working on in recent years has all been heavily
protected, valuable intellectual property, rather the opposite of
open-source.
