I was just informed yesterday afternoon that a consultant we are using
for a database product design is coming to town to discuss
documentation! It's great that his trip was approved for documentation
purposes; however, that means that I have exactly one hour to prepare
for his visit!
Any advice or suggestions on how I can use his time? (I have him all
afternoon!) BTW, he qualifies as a typical customer of the product--Big
bonus for me...
So far, I have some questions for him as well has rough outlines for the
contents of the different doc pieces.
HELP? ADVICE? COMMENTS? TIA!
