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.
This has been mentioned on the list a couple of times, but
several new
people have asked questions about documentation management, so
I'm
saying it again. The May 97 issue of Byte ran a very useful
article on
the topic. It discuses the general principles of doc management,
introduces a few products and provides links to couple of
websites. If
you manage to dig up a copy, it's definitely worth looking at.
