[ Version Control ]

In the olden days, when I first started working, there were typewriters and hand-written memos.  Let me assure you:  there were few problems with version control back then.  When you hand-write a document to get typed up by someone else, there’s no desire to have multiple versions.

It’s very different now of course.  Anyone who works with documents knows the problems with version control.  And it’s especially painful for documents like standards, new procedures, or at any stage of design.

Version control is a key documentation strategy.  Getting the version control process right in a business saves so much rework.
