Re: [epf-dev] OPEN Process Framework Repository
|
Everyone,
I have started transferring a discipline (Requirements Engineering) into
the epf tool, and I have run into the following problems so far:
1) There is no way to enter teams of roles.
2) There does not seem to be a way to enter techniques for performing tasks.
3) There does not seem to be a way to enter synonyms for tasks.
4) Some fields seem to allow html but other doe not (e.g., brief
description). I do not seem to be able to enter links into brief
descriptions.
5) Should definitions of method components be in the brief description
fields? But then what about a glossary (guidence "term definition")?
6) Role preview relationships are not sorted properly when entering
several (e.g., alphabetically). Role relationships do not handle long
names well (overlapping). They do not seem to scale up when you have
many tasks and many work products (A list could be better if there are
many tasks or many work products). Why are lists used some times and
simple-minded graphs other times?
7) The role responsible for a work product may change over time. Yet
currently, the assumption is that one role is the owner. Perhaps
produces may be a better concept.
8) How do you handle inheritance relationships between roles (e.g.,
content worker, strategist, manager) and disciplines (e.g., types of
requirements engineering) and tasks (e.g. visioning)?
