Subject: Recommendations on Documentation Plan Templates?
Hello, well I met our new Director today. I work in a small product management group as the documentation manager along with three product line managers. I mentioned to the new Director that the documentation could use review by a "fresh set of eyes" to ensure we are creating the right types of documents for the right audiences. Me and my big mouth. He replied, "great, why don't you come up with a new documentation plan that we can review." Anyone know where I can find a good template to work from? This would be a plan for our entire documentation set, not for a specific project like a new software release. Any ideas?
