I haven't been following this thread, so forgive me if this information was
already given. According to Assist Online, an official web for DoD specs
and standards, MIL-STD-217 was replaced by MIL-STD-218. MIL-STD-218 is
described as "document exists only as a reference in data base" with the
status as being "unknown". Parts 1, 2 and 3 of this document
(MIL-STD-217/1, 2 or 3) were in fact cancelled without replacement. Take
this for what it's worth.

Steve,
RE: MIL-Hdbk-217
FYI I recieved the following copy of an e-mail about 2 months ago
I received this e-mail and I am glad to see that someone is working
a
replacement for Mil Hdbk 217. As you may know, the DSIC made a
decision
several years ago to let Mil Hdbk 217 "die a natural death". This is
still
the current OSD position i.e. we will not support any
updates/revisions to
Mil Hdbk 217.

Earl,
I am quite sure that Mil-Std 217 - Preparation of Manuscript
for Tech
Manuals, or some such similar title, was superceeded by
Mil-Std 218. I also
recall that 218 was a 3 'parter', but do not recall if it is
still active or
not. Been quite a while!
Mil-Hdbk-217 is on Reliability Prediction
Not sure where to get either one at the moment. Would have
to do some web
searching, etc.
Now that you know this, we may have to shoot you. :-)

Old folks, besides Ron D and me, which MIL-STD-217 doc is
which. Everything
has been cancelled as we all know. Is 217 the "How To Write"
document or?
