Hello Everyone,

I'm new to the list.

In my 8 1/2 years of doing technical writing I have
never been that good at estimating time required on a
project. Primarily because it has rarely been asked
of me for many reasons.

Can anyone comment in detail on the technique(s) you
use to give the most accurate estimate possible and
any possible caveats you warn your clients of?

Thanks for the help.

Sincerely,
Anthony V. Colello
