RE: [tgf] POLICY PRODUCTS DOCUMENT

Do you see this as a mandatory Policy Product, in other words we would insist that every TGF programme produces one? We need to be careful to differentiate between good advice and guidance and what the conformance criteria of the Pattern Language says about considering the Policy products.

Hi John,

I agree with the earlier comments from Chris and Colin.

On further documents to add in, I think there needs to be some guidance on the direction that governments are moving in a business/political sense (e.g. Open Public Services in the UK - http://www.cabinetoffice.gov.uk/resource-library/open-public-services-white-paper - which will dramatically change the public sector business/ICT Landscape and increase the number of stakeholders – failure to address such structural changes will result in divergence of a lot of ‘government’ systems) {Cell 2.1 for direction of travel, Cell 2.3 for detail (when available in the UK case)} and a repository for collaborating on progress being made (or even planned) {Cell 5.3} to encourage collaboration/reuse. In the UK, this will be instanced by an Open Standards process (expected in early -2012)

Regards

Nig

Attached is where I have got to so far with the draft Committee Note on the Policy Products. I’d appreciate an early view of whether this is along the right lines or not to save me wasting any more time if it’s wrong. Specifically:

1. Is it the correct format or do you have an alternative idea on how to construct the CN?

2. Do you have ideas on any other Products that should be added to the list? So far I’ve leaned heavily on what Chris and I produced some time ago for CS Transform but accept that may not be the complete list.

3. Quoting URLs for examples is always dangerous as they are probably not persistent. Should we use them or just the title of the document and let readers find the latest version using their search engines?

4. Is there anything else we need to say in this document about Policy Products in general and/or their usage in a TG program?

If everyone is content with this approach I’ll complete the tables with descriptions and more examples and register this as new Committee Note Draft with TC Admin.

All contributions/views welcomed.
