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.
Does anyone know of a standard allocation of time required for software
documentation in terms of the total
project hours? (ie. a percentage) Granted, estimating is much more
involved than this, but my boss is looking
for something like "documentation should be about x percent of a project's
total hours", as in a guideline.
Any ideas out there?
Thanks.
