Just a progress report on what's happening to our documentation:
In response to a question I asked a little while back -- whether people would like to see our documentation in HTML form in addition to the PDFs that we currently provide -- the response was an overwhelming "yes".
The documentation team has shown me their proposal for what the HTML docs will look like, and they're pretty good. The proposed design is built using RoboHelp and has a two-column frame-based design. The left column is a thin one used for navigation while the much wider right column contains the content.
I need to go over the design in more detail in order to make sure that it's useful and usable (for instance, it should be simple to bookmark a specific page -- it makes life easier for people who need to look up aspecific page often and for tech support). The product managers are also contributing their opinions, and as a result, we should soon have a nice set of HTML-based docs.
Another change -- my plan is to put the docs in an area *outside* the Reseller Resource Center (RRC), their current home. As you know, the RRC is locked behing a username/password wall to keep certain things confidential, but it's my opinion that our manuals and technical documentation should be openly available.
I'll post another update as things happen. -- _________________________________________________ Joey deVilla - Tucows, Inc. - [EMAIL PROTECTED] TC/DC (Technical Community Development Coordinator) "Nerdy Deeds Done Dirt Cheap" _______________________________________________ domains-dev mailing list [email protected] http://discuss.tucows.com/mailman/listinfo/domains-dev
