Answering the unasked questions...

Between emails and search logs, it seems that folks want to know about:

  • Author-it 5. It's in beta, folks. As soon as I'm able, I'll let you know the possible release date. (But it's cool :-) )
  • RoboHelp 7. It's in beta, too. As soon as I'm able, I'll let you know the possible release date. (It's cool, too.)
  • Collaborative writing. I'm working on a workshop for the Yggdrasil Conference now (well, when I'm not writing blog entries) that will cover a variety of collaboration types. I'm really excited about this workshop, and my system administrator has figured out how I can use my laptop as a server so that I can present this workshop in places with no Internet connection. (BTW, I'll be ariving in Oslo on Friday, 12 October, if anyone wants to get together to tour the Munch Museum or otherwise sightsee.)
  • Best HAT to use. Seriously, the best HAT is the one that has the features you need. I love getting questions on "which one's the market leader?"...no one knows! The vendors don't share that information, other than in big broad strokes. Find the one that has the features you need and try it out...the vendors all offer trial versions. And please, don't try to pick your HAT by a popularity vote...you'll be disappointed.
  • My speaking schedule.
  • Training Materials. I currently offer training materials for Author-it 4.3, Author-it 4.5, and RoboHelp X5. The current plan is to offer updated versions for Author-it 5 and Robohelp 7 (thus skipping RoboHelp 6) within 6 to 8 weeks of their releases. Of course, with my luck, they will release within several days of each other.

More soon...
