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.
I wouldn't agree that XML is in its diapers. If we are talking about XML
used for creating and maintaining technical documentation, what I would
agree with is that people use overly complex schemas or DTDs (like
DocBook etc). It's no surprise that people who contemplate XML run and
hide.
Anyone who contemplates using XML for creating and maintaining technical
documentation should seriously consider simplistic schemas or DTDs, e.g.
FlexDTD and others.
