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.
If writers have issues they need to address, this should be a welcome opportunity to learn something about themselves and the basis for improvement. Writers might come out of the meeting feeling kind of beat up, but as a writer I'd rather know about and be able to do something about it than to be blissfully ignorant. If you have issues, let me know.

Subject: Re: Credit where credit is due??
I usually send a private email to the writers of such messages
asking, "Did you actually intend to not include my writer/s in
your list of people whose contributions you were appreciating?
If so, I'd like to schedule a meeting to go over your issues with
my writer/s' efforts." Of course, the potential downside for the
writer/s is if there are issues...
