RE: [epf-dev] Intro page + Plus comments for all content leads++
 | 
Hello Per,
 
Concerning the additional roles for the tasks in intent I 
agree that the Architect, Developer and Test should be additional roles to 
ensure requriements are feasible and verifiable.  I propose we add these 
three additional performers to the three tasks in 
requirements.
 
The three requirements tasks contain the step Achieve 
Concurence.  I think they fine as is, along with the associate 
guidance Effective Requirements Reviews as these two elements do discuss 
internal reviews to ensure that requirements are feasible and verifiable.  
If you think there should be an additional sentence added to the step: Achieve 
Concurence I have no problem with that.  Let me know what you think and I 
will create bugzilla entries and make the changes.
 
Cheers,
Chris
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 Per

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,
