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?
