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.
The Act does not dictate the "how" of documentation -- that's for
each organization to determine on its own. There are various
organizations that assist companies with compliance, so I think if
you Google a bit you can get the general idea of how vast an area
this really is.
I know someone on this list is doing this work right now, so
perhaps he will see your post and comment.
