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.
I don't think it's quite accurate to say that the FDA
regulations change all that frequently. 21 CFR Part 11
was instituted in 1997 and it took over 5 yrs for the
FDA to decide that electronic submissions were acceptable.
However, the agency interpretation of what procedures
industry needs to follow to *comply* with regulations is
indeed fluid. Changes occur in part because of changing
political landscapes, but also in part because industry
itself is constantly petitioning for various changes.

Nonsense. New drugs and devices don't require new regulations. In fact,
that's back-asswards. Drugs and devices are developed and tested in
accordance with the _existing_ regulations; they have to be, unless the
developers are required to be prescient.
