Discussion points …
- Names, dates, calendar issues, places, etc. and then the larger issue of subdividing information / separating evidence and conclusion. (Quantum genealogy!)
- Parameters Catalog (vs requirements catalog); some terminology to convey that work continues to build consensus about the requirements. (as opposed to a requirements catalog which establishes something closer to the framework for a software development project).
- See links for the Sources and Citations section-
- file/view/Sources%20and%20Citation%20data%20model%20DRAFT%20v%200.4%2027nov2011.pdf
