"Writers Workbench:  Bellwether for New Product Line", Unix(tm) Review,
Feb/Mar 84, pg 48:

"The Writers Workbench is ... an almost completely debugged,
well-documented, user-friendly set of programs that does
exactly what it says it is going to do, without any unpleasant
surprises.

"To what can we attribute this state of grace?  As an unabashed
female chauvinist, I'd like to point out that a great many of the
people who developed WWB were women.  There has been significant
involvement by men as well, including the enthusiastic, even
evangelical support of Dr. Charles Smith from Colorado State
University, but the predominantly female makeup of the WWB
development team is worthy of remark."
