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.
You definitely want to indicate on the sign-off sheet the complete title of the
document(s) reviewed, including release or part number, and the date of the
sign-off. This is important information for your records.
The only statement I would include would be something generic like "The
undersigned have reviewed the following document(s) and agree to their release,
once changes indicated by the reviewers have been incorporated". This allows
you to get sign-off before you've finished making all corrections that the
reviewers wanted.
