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.
MIF2Go's OmniHelp output is highly customizable, the learning curve
isn't as rough as WebWorks, and I believe OmniHelp is easier to set up
than an Eclipse Infocenter (all you have to do is dump the output
files in a directory on a Web server).
I found Omsys's tech support much better than Quadralay's and the $295
price includes a year of support.
