"end of the year"! You're lucky! I regularly get CCed on e-mails saying
"Please send us the documentation for <x>" where <x> is some customer
project I've never heard of, and the documentation is something I just
started working on.
So I'm working on that documentation, plus trying to clean up the
existing documentation that was done by non-techwriters who had only a
vague understanding of <y>, where <y> is anything remotely related to
tech writing.
Working at a startup is fun. *Fun*, I tell you, *FUN*! Don't *put* me in
that white jacket... The bugs! The bugs!

Subject: what are you working on today
~
Thought it would be interesting to find out what everyone is working on
as far as types of projects during what is sometimes the busiest time of
year for tech writers ("tell the tech writer we need it by end of
year!").
Generally, I am focusing on an IT Report, Software Development
Artifacts, a Manual of Style update, and I'm still trying to get 'them'
to purchase RoboHELP.
