Requesting feedback for a user guide - good or bad idea?
Subject:Requesting feedback for a user guide - good or bad idea? From:"Yeomans, Claire" <claire -dot- yeomans -at- tso -dot- co -dot- uk> To:"TECHWR-L" <techwr-l -at- lists -dot- raycomm -dot- com> Date:Wed, 21 May 2003 17:42:47 +0100
I am interested in what people think about requesting feedback from readers
for a user guide.
My feeling is that I should provide people with an e-mail address for any
comments or suggestions, but I'm not sure if this is the norm, or whether it
is generally felt to be a good / bad idea.
Also, if this is something that other writers have included in
documentation, where have you placed it? Proudly at the front? Or tucked
away at the back in the hope that nobody actually finds it?!
Any thoughts on this would be greatly appreciated.
