There are a few lists of interest to technical writers.
1. ====================================
DTP-L is occasionally useful for FrameMaker,
Interleaf, etc. info. Seems most people are
QuarkXpress & PageMaker brochure makers vs.
technical documentation folks. I am in a
continuing debate with myself to quit this. There
are several active techwr-l types who also post to
this list.
TO: DIGESTIF -at- antigone -dot- com
SUBJECT:
BODY: SUB DTP-L Vicki Tsigaridis
(this is strictly DIGEST -- 6 ~ 12 messages/digest)
2. ====================================
Word users (out of Germany) goes from newcomers too
lazy to RTM to pros willing to help you defeat the
problems of Master Doc. Strictly Word, but I think
NOT strictly WinWord. I have not recognized any
names from techwr-l so far, but there may be lurkers.
TO: mxserver -at- ufobi2 -dot- uni-forst -dot- gwdg -dot- de
SUBJECT:
BODY: SUBSCRIBE WORD-PC Vicki Tsigaridis
(there is a DIGEST option)
3. ====================================
WinHelp - Just signed on here; seems high level.
TO: listserv -at- admin -dot- humberc -dot- on -dot- ca
SUBJECT:
BODY: SUBSCRIBE WINHELP Vicki Tsigaridis
(may be WINHELP-L, but try the el-less version first)
This is really WINDOWS help, not WinWord+compiler
help, although there seems frequent mention of RoboHelp.
Other products and plain Windows are much more frequently
cited.
4. =====================================
RITM (Telecommunications and Information
Marketing) I have just joined and am waiting for a digest
TO: listserv -at- uriacc -dot- uri -dot- edu
SUBJECT:
BODY: SUBSCRIBE RITIM-L Vicki Tsigaridis
5. ======================================
To subscribe/get help about membership of the *Wordplay list, send messages
to: MAILSERV -at- Levels -dot- UniSA -dot- Edu -dot- Au
The body of the message should contain a line such as:
SUBSCRIBE WordPlay-L YOUR NAME eg SUBSCRIBE WORDPLAY-L VICKI TSIGARIDIS
6. ====================================
For *Copyedit write to: LISTPROC -at- CORNELL -dot- EDU
and in the message text type:
SUBSCRIBE COPYEDITING - L YOUR NAME eg SUBSCRIBE COPYEDITING - L VICKI
TSIGARIDIS
7. ====================================
For *Telecom send a message to: telecom-request -at- eecs -dot- nwu -dot- edu
and in the message type: SUBSCRIBE TELECOM YOUR NAME eg
SUBSCRIBE TELECOM VICKI TSIGARIDIS
END OF LIST INFO =========================
I recommend *copyedit and *wordplay.
