atw: Re: Accreditation

Then, to paraphrase you, Steve (H)

It'd be easier to get a decent hair cut if tech writers weren't
employed as hairdressers!

I think the problem is down to all that concentration on getting to the
root of the matter, the time taken to create the Styling Plan (About
This Scalp, Table Of Follicles and the like) have that signed off, each
major clump of hair being sequentially numbered and reviewed by peer
cutters ("sure we can headers here, but the footers are the domain
of our manicurist").

Then, and only then can, the "editing" commence.

Still, it could create a fascinating sub-class entitled
the "Technical Coiffure-nicator".

T.G.I.F.

Cheers,

Michael

It'd be easier to find a job if the hairdressers weren't employed as tech=

writers.
