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.

Bruce Byfield commented:
Unless the organizers systematically deleted every single
technically-oriented proposal (which I doubt), then I have to worry that the
majority of technical writers are ignoring the "technical" part of their job
title.
---------------------------
But, the Call for Proposals just published in the April 2001 Intercom lists
the following Stems as possibilities for presentations:
Management
Professional Development/STC-Related
Theory, Research, Education and Training
Tools and Technology (documentation tools and technology, not subject
matter).
Usability and Information Design
Writing and Editing.
This choice of Stems would seem to preclude technically-oriented sessions,
wouldn't it?
