08:52	bencomp	post-release requirement analysis is the best
10:34	pdurbin	:)
12:43		metamattj joined #dataverse
13:28	bencomp	pdurbin: are all requirements analyses written down in google docs?
13:28	bencomp	I am looking for a good way of sharing mine
13:30	bencomp	(not that I have a set of detailed use cases or requirements, but if I ever have something....)
13:34	pdurbin	bencomp: have you heard us mention a "Functional Requirements Document" (FRD) before?
13:34	bencomp	that sounds bad - if it means there aren't any
13:35	bencomp	but I think I have
13:35	bencomp	pdurbin: are they top secret?
13:35	pdurbin	heh. hardly
13:36	pdurbin	bencomp: I think I linked you to this one before: Shibboleth Functional Requirements Document for Dataverse 4.0 - https://docs.google.com/document/d/12Qru8Gjq4oDUiodI00oObHJog65S7QzFfFZuPU3n8aU/edit?usp=sharing
13:37	bencomp	I commented on that one :)
13:39	bencomp	my "post-release requirement analysis is the best" referred to https://github.com/IQSS/dataverse/issues/2177 - tbh it seemed something had gone wrong in requirements analysis
13:39	bencomp	pdurbin: if they are hardly secret, could they be linked from the developer guide?
13:42	pdurbin	bencomp: sure but would be link to each doc? There are a lot of them. We more often link to them from specific GitHub issues
13:43	pdurbin	bencomp: I just created this. What do you think? Update CONTRIBUTING.md to explain feature request process and what a Functional Requirements Document is · Issue #2203 · IQSS/dataverse - https://github.com/IQSS/dataverse/issues/2203
13:44	bencomp	I imagined a Grand Plan Document that links to individual FRDs for specific components
13:45	bencomp	that would require just one link
13:45	pdurbin	grand unified frd!
13:46	bencomp	GUF: "IQSS wants to support research data management with Dataverse software and service"
13:47	pdurbin	"Dedicated to sharing, archiving and citing research data" http://dataverse.org
13:52	pdurbin	maybe we could link to a Google Docs folder where (most of?) the FRDs live
