[OSLC-Metrics] Revision to Project Initiation description

[Arthur Ryman]

Andy,

I looked at your r5 and it completely messed up the content in a 
non-fixable way, so I simply reverted the page to r4. The current version 
is now r6 which is identical to r4. We'll have to add back your r5 edits 
to r6.

Going forward, do not use MS Word since this destroys the wiki markup. If 
you want to use another HTML editor, do the following:

1. edit the page. This opens the wiki wysiwyg editor.
2. click the HTML toolbar icon. This opens a raw HTML editor. The HTML is 
hard to edit here since there is no indentation.
3. select all the raw HTML
4. open your favorite raw HTML editor and paste the page into it
5. edit the page, being careful not to destroy the wiki markup
6. select all the content and copy it
7. go back to the wiki raw HTML window and paste the edited content in it
8. save the edited content in the wiki

I only use the above procedure when there is something funny going on in 
the wiki wysiwyg editor, e.g. empty headings that I can't delete. I've 
learned to live with the wiki editor. The trick is to keep pages 
relatively short, i.e. break up long pages into sections and put each in 
its own page.

If you were only using MS Word to mark up revised text, then don't bother 
because the wiki can compare revisions very nicely.

[OSLC-Metrics] Revision to Project Initiation description







I did an edit of the Project Initiation scenario to get in some key issues 
that affect the spec I believe; we can discuss what the changes imply: 

Scope vs. Size (and I wanted to reference an article I had put on the wiki 
some time back, but I can't find it any more!!!) 
Inputs, outputs, and constraints--key metrics 
What if and multiple estimates and when an estimate is chosen 

It's here:

(version 5) 

Unfortunately, I had a problem with formatting, and I've lost both some of 
the original formatting and color coding of changes I made so we could 
review them easily.  I'll eventually revise this to get the formatting 
back, but for now we can walk it through for review.
