RE: Developments in the review cycle

âSW on the sideâ like in dressing on the side (for salads) - quite funny actually! Our HW products are telecom boxes with embedded SW. But with all this virtualization trend going on, I guess boxes will gradually be replaced by networking SW run on regular servers and then we can apply Markâs theory.

Erika,
This is also true in my world. I have worked with projects that are equal split of hw and sw. Now the products are exclusively hw. Is your product a system or a smaller manufactured device with software on the side?

I agree it is challenging when you try to work through pubs with shorter schedules.

In my real world, there are also HW products, so there is no help inside the product. The documentation comes separately. Also, our target audience may not have Internet access where the equipment is located or in the NOC (due to security reasons).

In the real world, there's still a lot of installed software with embedded online help. Once that ships and a customer installs it, the help doesn't get updated until they choose to install a later release.
