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.
In our document numbering scheme, we use letters to identify document drafts
and numbers to identify document issues. Hence we have 'Draft A' and 'Issue
1'. Is this common practise, as opposed to using numbers for drafts and
letters for issues ('Draft 1' and 'Issue A')? Are there any authoritative
references that support the use of either one scheme or the other?
Thanks,
