Versioning

• Versioning is equally important

  • Especially if documents are to be "checked in and out"

• The simplest approach

  • Is simply to add R0, R1, R2, etc, on the end

    • E.g.: P1693_RequtsSum_Jones_R2
    • Means: Project #1693, Requirements Summary, by Jones, Revision #2, (R0 being the original)

• The project manager

  • Must decide what earlier versions must be saved

    • And what may be discarded
    • This may even be the subject of corporate policy
  • E.g. earlier versions of Project Definition should be saved
  • On the other hand, after the final version is agreed

    • Draft versions of Meeting Minutes may be discarded
