David,

You frequently post messages about content distribution strategies.
Do you have any pointers to more resources in this area that we could
study and/or share with our upper management?
I know that I am not alone in finding that the first level of review
that I get is someone pointing out that something about the product is
not covered in the documentation. There is quite a "completeness fetish"
in many organizations.

Thanks,
Jim Shaeffer (jims -at- spsi -dot- com)

The only organization that should document 100% or more of task
performance is technical support.

The allocation of content coverage across the enterprise is a strategic
decision that upper management needs to make rather than writers.

David
