Document Bureaucracy

Authorship

• Existing draft software and technical information notes (and some notes already in EDMS) generally have a single named author
• Clearly all these documents, however drafty, have benefitted from input from other people
• Usual contentious issue of authorship
• We should define some, not too rigid, procedure for progressing a document from draft towards general approval and entry into EDMS

Just for reference...
