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.

Is there a more current one out there that you'd recommend?
--------------------------------------------------
There's always
"Read Me First A Style Guide for the Computer Industry" from Sun Technical Publications (you can order it through Sun, or through Amazon)
I also noticed that on page 39 of the May 2002 issue of Intercom, there is a brief entitled "Status of Technical Manuals Specs and Standards" that seems pretty interesting. That may or may not be useful for you. If you don't get this magazine, I think they do put pdf versions up on the web at some point, but I'm not sure what that schedule is like.
"Whatever you do, do NOT let your editorial decisions be made by the squiggly spell-checking lines in Word!" ~Keith Cronin, Techwr-l irritant ;-)
