Subject: RE: [emergency-if] EDXL-AT & Situational Awareness
>> EDXL-HAVE, in my opinion, proves beyond a shadow of a doubt that accepting >>candidate specifications by groups of SMEs is almost always a mistake. SMEs rarely >>fully understand how broad, yet rigorous, the specification-writing process needs to be. >> We have now had to PAINFULLY deal with the consequences of being persuaded that >>the SMEs know their area best and that means they are the best group to write a >>specification for that area, instead of carefully working through a rigorous requirements-writing process. Rex: I am not sure how you characterize a candidate specification but EDXL-HAVE was submitted in the format that the EM TC requested - as a requirements specification - and not as a candidate specification. As I see it, the practitioners/SMEs do know their area best - I do not believe that will change - we should recognize this and work with the practitioners to leverage their domain expertise. Sukumar
