The New Template for OpenOffice.org Software Specifications - Less Fat More Muscles

Hi Tino,

I did not yet dive into this document, but have a side track
question:

When you introduced the preliminary version some time ago,
there have
been raised concerns that we need a document management
system for our
specifications, else they will soon rot and become
out-of-date.

Actually, to some extent this is already happening to the
existing
specifications, and those cover only *one* release. The more
specifications we get, the higher the probability of dead
corpses ...


In the process of re-thinking our specification handling,
did your team
also address this issue? I really hope that the answer is
"Yes, next
week the server goes online." , since
it's my *strong* belief that any
sophisticated document template will be of no use at all, in
the long
term, if we don't solve the problem of specification
document management.

Thanks for consideration.

Ciao
Frank
