Chris Hulin asks:
>* What's an SME? Is it "ess-em-ee" or "Smee". We haven't any where I work.
SME is an acronym--"ess-em-ee"--which stands for "Subject Matter Expert."
If you interview or consult with engineers, developers, and/or programmers
who are on the staff of your company to obtain technical information that
you use in your docs, you have SMEs where you work.
