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.
Sheesh! I'd say most people on this list now know (if they didn't before)
why some of us took the discussion off-line.
Most of us who went offline have been on this list for years and seen the
cert thread go round and round and round. It never seemed to get past the
phase of arguing about whether there should be a cert discussion. Well, some
of us decided to get past that and actually have the discussion.
What would be the point of including people who still want to argue about
whether certification should even be talked about?
Think of it more as an exploratory group. We're going away, doing some
research, generating some ideas, and we'll be reporting back to the
profession when we've got something to say. That's it.
(I think I'm still part of the discussion. When I got laid off I lost my
address book and haven't hooked back up with the cert group. Is this a
polite way of saying I've not been constructive?...)
