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.
Yeah. I have trouble with this, too. We use workflows for releasing
published vs draft information, but the system is not used for tracking
reviews and sign off.
That has to be done manually, where you reviewers test the doc against a
definition of done. Then, any future changes have to be weighed as a fix to
the expression or a need for additional technical review.
One and done is not possible (or desirable) in Agile. But you have to pick
your battles.
