Consider the possibility that once they are "responsible" <g> for the documentation, those who have to sign off on it will send you frantic updates and agonize *way* more than you do over word selection and comma placement up to and indeed beyond the deadline.

This is the first time we've done this and it's definitely a learning experience. :-)

I wonder: Is everybody who signs off 'responsible' for everything in the documentation, or is the signing off limited to certain areas, e.g., an SME signing off only on factual correctness?

Regards
Jan Henning
