Hello All,
I'm looking for a quick and easy transition to a more modern workflow to help keep up with software development. I've currently only authored in unstructured Frame under a book paradigm, and am finding it impossible to track development. Basically, we have two writers to support ~30 developers. The SW group has moved to an agile scrum process and create software features in modular form. Then they are checked into the SW pool and tested by another team who then publishes the FW releases to the Web team. The testing takes about 1 to 2 weeks and some features may not get released. Also, we do not really know when the SW is released until it goes live (much of the process is automated and decisions happen overnight). Dev cycles are three weeks and the software is usually not available until it is checked in for testing since there are many dependencies. I'd like to find a way to have content more modular and easy to snap-in/out like the software folks can switch on/off software features. I've thought of trying this with conditional text, but I think the complexity and granularity of what needs to be controlled is too high. I'd also like for the writing resources to be more agile so they can work on any document piece as needed. Right now, we move around and track "book" packages and publish PDF books with incrementing revisions. Any suggestions on how to proceed or where to look for some ideas?
