I'm releasing an early version of a manual for a chip. What is the
industry-standard term for such an early document? I've heard both
"advanced" and "advance." Later releases would be called "preliminary"
and "final."
----- End Included Message -----
This early version is an advance document. An advanced document is one that
contains information for more informed or advanced users.
