		<description>I love this idea. 

I am working on a version 1.0 project where preliminary design documents were done, however major - undocumented - feature changes have come to pass. This is to be expected in a version 1.0. By interpreting design documents, paying attention to changes in the user interface and using my imagination, I am writing user support materials that are ready at the same time as the developed features. Quality testers tell me that they are learning about the features and how to test them by reading the Help file. If testing doesn't match the help file, we talk about it and then ask development which way should be right. I am lucky to be working in a great team environment.</description>
