Re: [epf-dev] term definition

I think a Build need not be an executable or even an operational integration, e.g. Builds that are libraries or partial integrations. Also, there will be multiple builds but 1 release per iteration.

 How about:

"A build is an aggregation of related compiled code segments that can be managed as a unit"?

"A release is an executable aggregation of related compiled code segments and corresponding supporting documentation that can be published as a unit."

Releases could be further classified as internal, external, iteration, and project end. I have also seen releases that were external at iteration milestones, esp in product development.

Hi, 
while preparing some PM content for burndown and phases, I needed to decide on two terms. Here are my suggestions. 

"Build" (commonly an iternal executable after each iteration, occassional external for verification purposes) 
"Release" (term for external release when the project transitions out... could be pre, beta or production release) 

I suggest removing the term "release" in OpenUP after each iteration and replace it with "build". 

Thoughts? Agreement? 
Joe
