I have not done much in the way of write-ups other than PowerPoint-based training material for the companies involved. So far, this does not seem to be subject to regulatory or legislation - but that depends on what is being manufactured. In the current situation, I'm helping organize cabinet parts, components, GCode, optimizations, and other arcane artifacts in the woodworking community for CNC and related process support. It is an evolving domain. I do wish that Cloud providers like Atlassian would provide more comprehensive integrated code reviews (a.k.a. Gerrit) for some of this work. Surprisingly that's a harder sell to dedicate a server internally. Cheers, Randall
