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.
Treat them as an engineer would treat code. Check each one into a version
control system, where anyone wanting to update any one has to check it out.
Anyone else trying to get it is blocked until it's checked back in again.
Review each document on a periodic basis to be certain that the change history
(your documents DO have a change history table don't they?) is being updated.
