As with life in general, the all-or-nothing stances on both sides of the content/design war are wrong.

I'm just wondering: Has anybody argued on the list that design is more important than content (or that is all-important) for technical documentation? Or is this just a position that some proponents of the "content is everything" side have invented to have a better target?

Just asking because I cannot remember anybody arguing in this way for the pro-design position - but that may be my memory.

Regards
Jan Henning
