RE: [epf-dev] Vote on architecture principle

["Nate Oster" <noster@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

I'd like to vote for #3.  

OpenUP is architecture-centric and risk-driven, so it's ideal
application profile is "Greenfield" projects with moderate to high
architectural complexity.  

For instance, a simple website with a few forms is probably not very
architecturally significant, so an iterative process without an explicit
Elaboration phase might work well for that project using nothing but
2-week sprints.  

By contrast, a broker project to orchestrate disparate financial systems
with web services needs a "focus on the architecture to retire risks
early."

Thanks,
Nate

Subject: [epf-dev] Vote on architecture principle

Hi all!

The vote is now open. There are twelve eminent proposals of how to
present
the core architecture principle.

Please, vote on the formulation you want to represent the core
architecture principle. Send your vote by quoting the number of the
formulation to this list (epf-dev@xxxxxxxxxxx).

The vote will be open from Thursday March 22 and end Tuesday March 27
(Pacific Time).

Depending on the results of the vote of this round, there may be another
round to nail the preferred formulation.

1. "Focus on articulating the architecture" (currently on the web)

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"

5.  "Explore/articulate the architecture to address technical risks
early"

6.  "Focus on capitalizing on risk as an opportunity to advance current
capabilities in the project".

7.  "Focus on architecture to exploit risk as an opportunity to advance
current capabilities in the project."

8.  "Focus on the architecture early to minimize risks and organize
development"

9.  "Focus on architecture in early iterations to achieve overall system
stability"

10. "Focus on eliminating technical risk early to increase stability and
predictability"

11. "Express and mature the architecture while reducing the risk in the
solution"

12.  "Focus on the architecture to both promote a shared view of the
solution and capitalize on risk as an opportunity to advance current
capabilities in the project"

Cheers,
Jaana Nyfjord
