Based on the feedback received about the structure of the existing PRD, it might be better to split the document into various sections that more clearly call out the different purposes of the planning documentation.
Why don't we ..:
- use
wiki.mozilla.org/Firefox2 as the bon echo planning centre (really, we've been doing this all along)
- unlink the PRD, and beak it up into bits as described below
- take the first sections of the PRD on goals, vision, and mission of the project and put it in a section called "Project Goals and Objectives"
- replace the "Features" section with a "Requirements" section based on the PRD, but without owners; just a list of prioritized requirements. Provide links to tracking bugs for each requirement, and as Chris H suggested, tie those into a master tracking bug for Bon Echo.
- replace the "Schedule" page with the updated content from the PRD
- replace the "Release Criteria" page with the updated content from the PRD
- get to reviewing the requirements and scheduling sections asap, with the goal of finalising at next week's Bon Echo meeting.
- continue to cross post between bonecho@ and dev.planning until we can work out list migration issues later this week or early next week.
Chris: would you be able to start updating the wiki?
cheers,
mike
