RE: [epf-dev] Challenge - Five words for why architecture in OpenUP

[Ricardo Balduino <balduino@xxxxxxxxxx>]

I think this particular phrase is too
general - besides, removing risks should be also a practice under the Evolve
principle.
Focus on eliminating technical
risk early to increase stability and predictability.

I go with this option: 
"Focus on the architecture early to minimize
risks and organize development"

Cheers,

We don’t mention any disciplines
or practices in the other core principles. To be consistent, we could remove
the reference to architecture and let the principle guide the reader to
the discipline. Maybe something like:
 
Focus on eliminating technical
risk early to increase stability and predictability.

Hi everyone! 

I need to collect some proposals and then get a vote on the best proposal
to be able to close the bug concerning the formulation of the architecture
principle in OpenUp. 

A summary of the discussion so far, shows that 

- this principle needs be formulated in the same way as the other three
principles, i.e. “focus on … to …” ? 

But, we have NOT agreed on: 
- what the fundamental purpose and meaning of architecture and 
architecture-centric is and why this must be focused on in OpenUp 

There are currently four different suggestions of how to present this 
principle: 

1. "Focus on articulating the architecture" 
2. "Focus on the architecture to promote a shared view of the solution"
3. "Focus on articulating the architecture to retire risks early in
the 
project lifecycle." 
4. "Focus on the architecture to retire risks early." 

To resolve this bug, please consider the existing suggestions and let us
know with which proposal you agree, or propose a new core principle. 

I expect to have your proposals by Tuesday next week (March 20) to set
up 
a vote and then resolve this bug before the end of M6. 

Looking forward to some challenging creativity, 
Jaana Nyfjord
