Re: [epf-dev] Intro page + Plus comments for all content leads++
 | 
One comment on the first paragraph:
Instead of having all the roles in the collaboration sub-process ( 
including the "any role" that nobody seems to like and the stakeholder 
role that seems to be passive in the process) what don't we have only 2 
roles: "team member" and "stakeholder" ?.... the other open up roles 
such as analyst, architect, developer  could extent "team member" (i 
believe that we can do that with the tool) ... and be placed at the 
corresponding sub-process. Like this we could assign to the team member 
specific collaboration and communication tasks (that we don't have yet)...
We could also add some tasks to the stakeholder to show his 
responsibilities (besides participating on the others) for instance: 
prioritize requirements  or provide feedback on the solution
One comment on the management sub-process:
it is the only one that you do not mention work products ... i don't 
know if you want to mention the work items list?

Hi,
attached you find my draft description of each subprocess and the 
foundational collaboration layer. I am writing this disconnected, so 
cannot put it into bugzilla right now.
The text would probably benefit from a graph for each sub-process to 
capture the essence of that sub-process. I have not yet reflected on 
what such a graph may look like.
As I wrote the text, I made a number of comments that I hope is a good 
read for all content leads, as well as other people writing content. I 
e.g. suggest changes to most of the tasks in Intent and Solutions 
Development to better reflect collaborative development, with more 
roles involved in the various tasks. I think the counter-argument is 
that if every role needs to participate in every task, does that not 
only clutter the model? That would be a valid concern, but as a 
minimum, we need to make sure that it is crystal clear to the analyst 
that they should not only capture requirements, but that they need to 
involve developers, architects and testers to validate the 
requriements and ensure that they are understood. This could be done 
through a simple change to the step "Achieve Concurrence". The same 
type of thinking probably applies to most or at least many tasks in 
the intent and solutions development sub-processes.
Comments?
Cheers

Hi Steve,
As you recall, at Wednesday's status meeting I expressed the concern 
that the intro graphic, while cool, introduces another set of things 
that look a lot like the disciplines, which could be confusing.  To 
address this concern, Per has agreed to draft up some pages for each 
of these areas.
After Sept 30, we can further explore my proposal to align these areas 
with the disciplines.
(For reference, here is what I had in mind - although from informal 
discussions, it looks like it will take a while to gel):
- rename "Intent" to be "Requirements", to match the discipline
- Solution would have sub-disciplines of Implementation, Test, AnD, 
and later deployment.
- Management would have CM and Project Management, and later Environment.
- Communication and Collaboration becomes a new discipline that 
describes general concepts and responsibilities of all team members.
For now, the Any Role and "submit a change request" would be in this 
discipline.  Longer term would be general review procedures, guidance 
on scrums, searching for reusable assets and
providing feedback, resolving conflict, etc.)
Hope that works for you.
Cheers,
Bruce MacIsaac
