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.
Cold fusion is a reality folks. I have been following the back and forth
among Mark Baker, Eric and Deborah Ray, and some others regarding XML. What
a joy to see how discussion on a list can really be carried on! The messages
are examples of plenty of light, and no heat (apart from enthusiastic
support of a position). Of course, we'd expect nothing less from these
distinguished contributors and our own esteemed moderator.
I have learned a great deal about the nuances of XML in a very short period
of time. And thanks to the discussion, I can map out a plan for beginning to
understand the beast and eventually make it part of my repertoire. Thanks to
all who participated. (And don't stop as long as there's more to be said!)
