Re:What is a technical writer?

OK. So this seems to be a particular definition. Using this definition, I suppose that a large proportion of technical writers are writing documentation for proprietary software which runs on Windows, and a large proportion of these people are using vendor-supplied Windows-based resources to do this. What incentive would such Microsoft-saturated people have to use FOSS?

To me, it is almost like reading an article called "Why Microsoft marketing executives aren't using FOSS on their Microsoft-supplied laptops".
