Eric does a fine job here trying to keep us all on topic, and not
wasting thousands of people's time reading off-topic stuff.

.. but of course there is more to it than that. What about:

Discussion of what it is like to be a technical communicator where you
are working?

Issues of grammar and style that closely affect technical writers, but
aren't exclusive to technical writing?

Pleas for help with recalcitrant software?

.. and a general casual chat?

The solution is the TechComm list!

If you are want to develop discussions started here, but that are not
really relevant here, adjourn to the bar: TechComm

If you're not sure a topic is relevant here, bring it up in TechComm

It isn't a replacement for this list, but it is a more casual
supplement.

All are welcome in the UK-based TechComm list, which has a world-wide
membership.
