3809 -
380901 - Follow up ref SDS C9 0000, ref SDS C8 0000.
380902 -
380903 - Requirements for SDS apply concepts of disruptive technology based on
380904 - usefulness, ref SDS 0 K93H, that reflect human centered and empathic
380905 - design methodologies. ref SDS 0 CX7H Gary proposes reviewing tools to
380906 - strengthen SDS, ref SDS 0 K95I For example, email, ref SDS 0 MM3G,
380907 - and outlining attract customers. ref SDS 0 K8TR Winning customers
380908 - with immediate benefits enables discovering long-term benefits of
380909 - working intelligently. ref SDS 0 EL4F Organic structure is harder to
380910 - use and so may not be attractive, but is very beneficial, leading to
380911 - the idea that a work role for a Com Manager or Analyst will be needed
380912 - to build a culture of knowledge over the years ahead that grows demand
380913 - for SDS. ref SDS 0 EL5H Gary raises important design objectives to
380914 - expand span of attention that is accomplished in ways that are not
380915 - evident to people who see SDS records on the Internet. ref SDS 0 P36K
380916 - The gap between using SDS and seeing work product on the Internet
380917 - leads to frustration that can be managed by expanding use of SDS.
380918 - ref SDS 0 02DX Gary makes another powerful point about people wanting
380919 - benefits of SDS for saving time and money. Selling SDS requires
380920 - belief that the price of good management saves the cost of bad
380921 - management at the rate of 10:1. People will part with a dime to earn
380922 - a dollar; but, in the beginning are skeptical, so selling SDS partly
380923 - entails building the case for the value of working intelligently.
380924 - Recent evidence from CSG is helpful, and Gary's work estimating ROI
380925 - using SDS, based on solving problems with the ISS project, can
380926 - strengthen evidence on the benefits of using SDS. ref SDS 0 MG3N Gary
380927 - says today that SDS work product on the Internet conveys experience of
380928 - self-evident benefits that change attitudes so that people want to
380929 - work intelligently. Therefore, more people spreading good news about
380930 - SDS leads to more people using SDS, which in turn grows the number of
380931 - records on the Internet that demonstrate self-evident benefits.
380932 - ref SDS 0 MU6H This presents a marketing opportunity using customer
380933 - work product to grow demand for good management. ref SDS 0 QS7M

381307 - to the letter on 020615 that discussed developing SRS for SDS based on
381308 - marketing analysis of disruptive technology, ref SDS C9 AT5K, in light

381310 - reported on 010720. ref SDS 75 OB8F

381326 - for determining market size for disruptive technologies.
381327 - ref SDS 32 4720
381328 -
381329 - This relates to analysis to Gary in the record on 020615,
381330 - ref SDS C9 AT5K, that cites discussion with Morris on

381341 - Gary continues...
381342 -
381343 - 2. An approach that I do consider makes sense is to model
381344 - potential users needs as clearly as we can so that we can
381345 - demonstrate how features of the program provide benefits that
381346 - the users can appreciate. ref DRT 1 FZ5N That connection
381347 - hasn't yet been made for people like Jack Park, who thinks it
381348 - is an "interesting idea" but doesn't provide anything he thinks
381349 - most people need.
381350 -
381351 - [...below, Gary reports using SDS explicit links makes
381352 - good management fast and easy enough to change attitudes
381353 - that resist good management. ref SDS 0 MU6H

381356 - Gary's idea today to develop a customer profile by modeling
381357 - needs for better management to work intelligently for
381358 - saving lives, time and money complements his letter on
381359 - 020217 asking what do customers care about that SDS

381384 - Use Case Scenario for Incorporating Email into SDS
381385 - Email Use Case Scenario for Incorporating into SDS
381386 -
381387 - 4. Consider the scenario - you and I are each running separate
381388 - instances of SDS each with a sharable portion on the web. Using
381389 - SDS to construct email and then sending it provides a way to
381390 - add intelligence to the construction of the content. If SDS can
381391 - then take that "remote record" and incorporate it directly so
381392 - that it will be available for reference, I think we can combine
381393 - some of the immediacy of email with the thought and
381394 - consideration of content construction needed for good
381395 - management. This is similar to the approach you take when you
381396 - reference an HTML letter, except that the letter is HTML rather
381397 - than an SDS record. ref DRT 1 UJ7J
381398 -
381399 - [...below, Gary describes a similar scenario in a
381400 - second letter today. ref SDS 0 M23V
381402 - ..
381403 - [On 020714 Gary asked for feedback on how SDS supports
381404 - email now. ref SDS D1 MM3G
381406 - ..
381407 - SDS is used now to complement other programs by providing
381408 - an underlying capability to manage everything, including
381409 - email, see POIMS. ref OF 1 2688 People use Microsoft
381410 - Powerpoint to prepare for a meeting, and Word to write a
381411 - report, or in the case of Aerospace company an SRS, and Microsoft
381412 - Excell to look at accounting or engineering calculations.
381413 -
381414 - [...below, eight (8) steps using SDS complement email
381415 - and other IT methods by adding intelligence to save
381416 - time and money. ref SDS 0 BR7K
381418 - ..
381419 - SDS is used to capture what was done to prepare for the
381420 - meeting, write the report or SRS and what to calculate, why
381421 - it was done, to "think" about other options, and to
381422 - integrate planning and analysis with communications in
381423 - calls and meetings, and with doing other tasks, as set out
381424 - in NWO. ref OF 3 2536
381426 - ..
381427 - An example is given in POIMS, ref OF 1 0859, and is further
381428 - illustrated in the Typical Day Scenario. ref OF 2 0001 This
381429 - synthesis, or integrating, process, i.e., thinking, is
381430 - curretly done only in the human mind.
381431 -
381432 - [On 020714 Gary has reviewed Typical Day Scenario.
381433 - ref SDS D1 JW4N
381435 - ..
381436 - SDS provides a flexible structure to externalize thinking,
381437 - shape it, and preserve it for accurate use later, i.e., 10
381438 - minutes, 10 hours, days, weeks, years, as explained in
381439 - POIMS, ref OF 1 M17I, and noted by Bill DeHart on 000709.
381440 - ref SDS 44 0052 This lifts the capacity to think, remember
381441 - and communicate, as set out in POIMS, ref OF 1 3742, which
381442 - can be summarized as augmenting intelligence. see again
381443 - POIMS. ref OF 1 63DJ Accordingly, software designers and
381444 - engineers must first identify how SDS works based on using
381445 - SDS in order to assess additional capability.
381446 -

381452 - Disruptive Technologies Bridge Familiar and Useful Tools
381453 -
381454 - Gary explains....
381455 -
381456 - 5. The market research argument is that market sizes for a
381457 - disruptive technology cannot be determined from market
381458 - research. On the other hand, such products are under far more
381459 - pressure to provide early adopters with benefits that they can
381460 - appreciate and brag about. ref DRT 1 9Q8M
381462 - ..
381463 - 6. This is one reason for wanting to supply connections to some of
381464 - the tools that are in use now. ref DRT 1 DQ9I
381465 -
381466 - Agree per Grove on 980307. ref SDS 26 3740
381468 - ..
381469 - 7. Even more to the point, tools such as email are in widespread
381470 - use for what many consider good reasons. Whether the reasons
381471 - they cite are the correct ones is open to debate, but
381472 - attempting to identify what features of a tool are the real
381473 - reason for popularity is a perfectly sensible thing to do when
381474 - developing a disruptive technology. ref DRT 1 CS9M
381475 -
381476 - Agree.
381478 - ..
381479 - Email Has Useful Features and Benefits
381481 - ..
381482 - Gary continues...
381483 -
381484 - 8. Among the useful features of email are:
381485 -
381486 - • It is direct to a person (peer-to-peer if you will)
381487 - rather than general to a newsgroup or something similar.
381488 - ref DRT 1 DT5K
381490 - ..
381491 - • It announces itself so that I don't have to perform
381492 - queries for new information. This makes it useful for
381493 - announcements of changes to such things as databases or
381494 - web pages. ref DRT 1 KS5F
381495 - ..
381496 - Agree we need a way to deliver the mail, and
381497 - email is a good way.
381499 - ..
381500 - • It is fast in the sense that I can use the same tool to
381501 - respond that I use to read it. I also have the original
381502 - communication at hand when I do this. ref DRT 1 TS5J
381503 -
381504 - Agreed, the email system now in place provides
381505 - flexibility to make immediate response, or incorporate
381506 - into SDS and deliberate when necessary and time is
381507 - available, per review on 001219. ref SDS 56 OW6M
381508 -
381510 - ..
381511 - Email Has Disadvantages
381512 -
381513 - Gary says...
381514 -
381515 - 9. Among the problems with email are:
381516 -
381517 - 1. It does not result in an organized record without help.
381518 - The style is familiar rather than documentary, and there
381519 - is little to no support for organizing the information
381520 - contained in emails. ref DRT 1 7V5N
381522 - ..
381523 - 2. It is too easy to give "off the cuff" responses without
381524 - looking at the history of the particular "thread",
381525 - resulting in all of the ills you ascribe to it.
381526 - ref DRT 1 IV6K
381527 - ..
381528 - Email is reviewed in POIMS. ref OF 1 CZ6K
381530 - ..
381531 - Gary reviewed disadvantages of email on 010408,
381532 - ref SDS 63 9H8H, as shown further below listing the
381533 - record of email growing the market for SDS.
381534 - ref SDS 0 WF3H
381535 -
381537 - ..
381538 - Email Can be Managed Fairly Quickly with SDS
381539 - Incorporating Email into SDS is Fast and Easy
381540 - Rewording Not Required to Paraphrase for Alignment
381541 -
381542 - Gary explains scenarios for managing email with SDS....
381543 -
381544 - 10. In order to provide a record from email, it is necessary to
381545 - extract it and often reword it. It is necessary to connect the
381546 - content to other information in the same subject to see where
381547 - it fits in with the entire subject. It would seem that there is
381548 - value then, in being able to access an email at the same time
381549 - you are working in SDS. Whether that means that it makes sense
381550 - to be able to import an email into SDS is an open question.
381551 - ref DRT 1 5S6O
381553 - ..
381554 - See comment above on scope of applying SDS to daily work,
381555 - including email. ref SDS 0 ZY5H
381557 - ..
381558 - "Rewording" is not a good explanation for adding value to
381559 - daily communication using deliberative analysis. Original
381560 - work in positioned in Knowledge Space to show alignment,
381561 - correlations, implications and nuance using paraphrase to
381562 - understand original words in the context of objectives,
381563 - requirements and commitments. This record is an example of
381564 - using the eight (8) steps for applying SDS to refine the
381565 - accuracy of knowledge through triangulation in handling
381566 - email and all other information, as explained in POIMS, see
381567 - also below. ref SDS 0 9M6L
381569 - ..
381570 - 11. The ability to generate an email from an SDS record is
381571 - clearly valuable. The more seamless these can be the better.
381572 - ref DRT 1 010V
381574 - ..
381575 - 12. Consider if emails needing analysis and response could be
381576 - flagged in some way and then show up in the SDS to do list or
381577 - inbox for processing. To the extent that this can be done, SDS
381578 - comes a step closer to being the place where a manager spends
381579 - the bulk of his time. ref DRT 1 GU4F
381580 -
381581 - These tasks are routine using SDS, as seen by this record.
381583 - ..
381584 - For example, any part of this record can be linked in an
381585 - email to direct attention to specific subjects.
381587 - ..
381588 - We do not want to blur the distinction between delivering
381589 - the mail, and having a place where deliberative analysis
381590 - can be carried on out apart from the delivery system, and
381591 - where there is complete and sole control of distribution
381592 - until and unless released by the originator. SDS records
381593 - are a place where people think, and not all thoughs are
381594 - released, indeed, only a very small fraction of human
381595 - thought is every distributed through speech and/or writing.
381597 - ..
381598 - Making SDS part of email sounds like it might breach that
381599 - important separation between what we think and what we
381600 - decide to impart to others. We need a wider base of people
381601 - like Gary to work with SDS over a period of time to assess
381602 - viability for further integration of SDS and email based on
381603 - actual experience.
381604 -
381606 - ..
381607 - Email Killer App that Grows Demand for SDS to Add Intelligence
381608 - Features Users Care About Have Short and Long Term Components
381609 -
381610 - Submitted an email to Gary on 020616 that says...
381611 -
381612 - Note, this letter is not in the document record.
381613 -
381614 - 1. Just a couple of comments on your excellent letter today, per
381615 - above. ref SDS 0 0001
381617 - ..
381618 - 2. Identifying features that users "appreciate" (also "care
381619 - about") has short and long term components.
381621 - ..
381622 - Email has many features people like in the short term. Out of
381623 - the box it is free, fast and easy. It brings reminders.
381624 - Morris, Jack and Eric have mentioned these features that people
381625 - "appreciate" for "easy diggings" that bring an abundance of
381626 - immediate emotional satisfaction and good feelings like fools
381627 - gold, reviewed on 010908, ref SDS 78 YF5O, also cited by Gary
381628 - per above. ref SDS 0 2S5H
381629 -
381630 - Email is reviewed in POIMS. ref OF 1 CZ6K
381632 - ..
381633 - Gary mentions email advantages in his letter today, per
381634 - above. ref SDS 0 2T76
381636 - ..
381637 - All of the advantages for email make it a "killer app"
381638 - that kills productivity, earnings and stock prices. This
381639 - enabling force grows demand for adding intelligence to
381640 - information in email, calls and meetings, as discussed
381641 - with Doug Engelbart on 011120, ref SDS 87 H67I, and citing
381642 - analysis on 010908 showing the appeal of email to laziness
381643 - ensures mistakes that cause communication to fail, which
381644 - increases awareness of the need for SDS. ref SDS 78 L27L
381645 - More recently, this point was made on 020327. ref SDS A9
381646 - 6X6H

381652 - SDS Features People Like Enable Discovery of Long Term Benefits
381653 -
381654 - Rod continues...
381655 -
381656 - 3. SDS has features that some people may like "out-of-the-box":
381657 -
381658 - a. integrated schedule and diary with doc log and contacts
381659 - that provide natural organization
381661 - ..
381662 - b. flexible,
381664 - ..
381665 - c. organic structure,
381667 - ..
381668 - d. ability to find things quickly and present the record
381669 - showing chronology of cause and effect.
381671 - ..
381672 - 4. The marketing challenge is delivering these features that
381673 - people can fairly readily grasp in a form that can be used long
381674 - enough to discover the long-term benefits of knowledge that
381675 - overcome long-term harm caused by short-term benefits of email
381676 - for generating information that mask the need for investing
381677 - time for working intelligently.
381679 - ..
381680 - 5. It is fairly fast and easy to grab email and incorporate it
381681 - into SDS in the manner Gary indicates today, by linking things
381682 - up to related context of history, objectives, requirements and
381683 - commitments, as you see in SDS records, per above. ref SDS 0

530930 - 8. The marketing challenge is that most people don't place a big
530931 - value on understanding by expanding span of attention until
530932 - after the "horse is out of the barn." When a mistake occurs,
530933 - then Murphy's Law is blamed and people wonder why the
530934 - government doesn't do something? In other words, even when
530935 - problems occur, people don't realize the cause is lack of
530936 - understanding due to limited span of attention, because the
530937 - error usually occurred in the distant past by people far

530959 - situations, this, too, can be fast and easy, once set up. An
530960 - example is the FAR requirements examined on 020504. ref SDS B4
530961 - 0001
530963 - ..
530964 - 10. People have spent several hundred years working out a useful
530965 - knowledge structure, and so applying it with SDS is just a
530966 - matter of setup. Takes a day or two, then folks are off and
530967 - running. The same thing occurs with building a car, a space
530968 - ship or an office building, bridge, etc., where there are plans
530969 - and specs that guide performance.
530970 -
530971 - Below, Gary agrees that SDS helps implement good
530972 - management practices required by FAR, and asks if Stuart

530978 - dialog maps to develop and manage ontologies. ref SDS 0
530979 - 2Q4H
530981 - ..
530982 - 11. Medical care is another good example of using SDS because the
530983 - human body has a set organic structure. You are familiar with
530984 - the SRS example from work at Aerospace company. In theory, you create and
530985 - SRS and there is a WBS, a set of accounts for budget and
530986 - schedule; this kind of thing make life a lot easier for SDS.
530988 - ..
530989 - 12. Where time is a killer is stuff like what comes in on OHS/DKR
530990 - where a lot of random discussion is not tied to anything. SDS
530991 - is designed to manage this stuff, but it takes time to cover
530992 - the full range of issues, because there is no anchor, rather
530993 - the anchor is constantly being created in a many directions
530994 - with multiple threads. Using SDS for this purpose helps the
530995 - mind find things and assemble things in multiple views, but,
530996 - like tending a garden, the cognitive overhead is constant.

881705 -
881706 - 1. I do not intend to imply that SDS should adopt *anything* just
881707 - because it is cool or popular.
881709 - ..
881710 - I do want to stress, though that just because something like

881712 - there are not elements that it does address that do in fact
881713 - reflect real needs. ref DRT 2 M157
881714 -
881715 - Agree.
881717 - ..
881718 - 2. One aspect of SDS for example is that it is not necessary to
881719 - start from scratch with the entire list of possible things to
881720 - do today in order to determine what is important - that is

881736 -
881737 - 3. Something like a Wiki, for example is much more useful if it is
881738 - possible to determine automatically when there has been
881739 - activity in an area that is of interest rather than having to
881740 - review the entire structure every day. This can be achieved
881741 - with an appropriate search and sort rather than email, but the
881742 - ability to have a system inform you of actions or conditions of
881743 - interest is a worthwhile feature, regardless of the fact that
881744 - it is an aspect of email that makes it popular, even though
881745 - this very feature is abused. ref DRT 2 PW6M
881747 - ..
881748 - Gary makes a good point about designing technology to
881749 - expand span of attention for augmenting human intelligence,
881750 - which is a core objective of the SDS design explained in

881798 -
881799 - 4. Rod, sometimes you exasperate me. I *never said* that SDS was
881800 - only about having common tools. I agree that most people can't
881801 - do a decent job of using the tools they have even for the
881802 - purposes for which they are suited, and this is by no means
881803 - limited to the feature bloated tools produced by Microsoft.
881804 - ref DRT 2 02DX
881806 - ..
881807 - Exasperation and frustration flow in part from the gap
881808 - between experience using SDS and experience working with
881809 - SDS records on the Internet that do not impart SDS program
881810 - functionality. Hubris and heavy handedness by Rod may
881811 - reflect impatience and frustration from slow progress
881812 - educating people about new ideas, noted by Gary on 011210
881813 - citing work by Buckminster Fuller. ref SDS 89 R66K
881815 - ..
881816 - For example, the record on 950426 reports that Edward
881817 - Deming was impatient with students at George Washington
881818 - University because the nation's top bureaucrats and CEOs
881819 - were slow to grasp that better management and productivity
881820 - require better quality, i.e., fewer mistakes, ref SDS 13
881821 - 9530, leading to a scenario that describes "exasperation"
881822 - from the story about the Genie in the Bottle. ref SDS 13
881823 - 1335
881825 - ..
881826 - Deming could be forgiven some exasperation given Drucker's
881827 - support for "quality" as the driving force of knowledge
881828 - work, reviewed on 931130, ref SDS 8 3416, and Drucker is
881829 - the leading expert that CEOs claim to follow.
881831 - ..
881832 - As Gary and others gain experience using SDS, there will be
881833 - a broader base of knowledge about features and functions
881834 - that resolves some frustrations all around.
881835 -
881837 - ..
881838 - Gary describes ideas for gathering SDS design requirements...
881839 -
881840 - 5. ...because a tool is misused, or people misunderstand it, or
881841 - they don't know why SDS should be of interest to them is *no
881842 - reason* to assume that there is nothing to be learned by
881843 - looking at the tools people do adopt, what they use about them
881844 - and what they don't. Since market research and other notions
881845 - such as usability studies are of little or no use, any
881846 - improvements and advancements that we make in something like
881847 - SDS will come about because we are able to define what we
881848 - intend for the tool to allow us to do, and pay attention to
881849 - things that have proven to make things easier even if we don't
881850 - use them in the same way. ref DRT 2 RT3K
881852 - ..
881853 - Human centered design, empathic design and similar methods
881854 - use an anthropological approach to study the character of
881855 - work, including tools people use in order to identify
881856 - useful improvement, reviewed on 990527 in reading Clay
881857 - Christensen's book on Disruptive Technology. ref SDS 32
881858 - 6633 This method has been use for designing SDS, as
881859 - reported on 010924. ref SDS 82 NK4J
881861 - ..
881862 - Gary explains importance of learning from others...
881863 -
881864 - 6. Your approach to "purple numbers" is a perfect example. Purple
881865 - numbers had several goals in mind, one of which was that links
881866 - could be constructed by hand, which meant that the numbers had
881867 - to be visible. You rejected this idea for SDS and came up with
881868 - an approach that allows the record to be indexed in the HTML in
881869 - a way that is unobtrusive, aids in the positioning when
881870 - following a link, and makes it far easier for people who are
881871 - interested to reference the record without running SDS to do
881872 - it.
881873 -
881874 - [...see below for more explicit links and granular
881875 - addressability. ref SDS 0 QR9O
881877 - ..
881878 - 7. The fact that purple numbers alone are an incomplete solution
881879 - doesn't mean that they wouldn't dramatically improve the
881880 - usefulness of the email archive - I tried to reference some of
881881 - the OHS-DEV emails in this reply, but it got to be too hard to
881882 - bother with. The addition of some of the basic ideas behind
881883 - purple numbers to the operation of SDS has been very valuable.
881885 - ..
881886 - 8. When I originally commented on POIMS, I didn't link to the
881887 - record as it was just too difficult. The latest trip through
881888 - the document resulted in extracted information and commentaries
881889 - that are fully linked back to the record, and that is possible
881890 - only because of your implementation of purple numbers in the
881891 - SDS record.
881892 -
881893 - On 020325 Gary comments favorably on improvements to SDS
881894 - for using explicit links. ref SDS A6 0001
881896 - ..
881897 - 9. If the addition of a part of a concept such as purple numbers,
881898 - even in a way far different than was intended, can improve SDS
881899 - as much as it did after the years of effort you put into it,
881900 - looking at other things that have proven useful in other tools
881901 - is not misplaced.
881902 -
881903 - Gary makes a good point that incorporating useful methods
881904 - that have been developed for other tools can improve SDS,
881905 - also, called out in his first letter today, per above.

881914 - We have been blessed by being enlightened rather than bound
881915 - by what others have done, since according to Dave Snowden
881916 - at IBM, other KM efforts have all failed, reported on
881917 - 020608. ref SDS C5 0001 Focusing on usefulness rather than
881918 - following market leaders has yielded discovery of a tool

BL0404 -
BL0405 -
BL0406 - 24. This [granular addressability] is the sort of relationship that
BL0407 - I see as valuable to a user of SDS. This would allow saving
BL0408 - some incoming record (document, email, proposal, etc) in an
BL0409 - addressable form (similar in intent to "purple numbers") and
BL0410 - then easily add commentary to various SDS records (threads,
BL0411 - whatever) that provide links into the document tying it to the
BL0412 - organic structure within SDS. This is an attempt to get at the
BL0413 - meaning contained within documents that weren't well organized
BL0414 - or didn't take the record into account. ref DRT 2 M23V
BL0416 - ..
BL0417 - "Purple" numbers could be green, black, red, brown, pink,
BL0418 - anything, but does not convey any hint of purpose or
BL0419 - functionality for categorization.
BL0421 - ..
BL0422 - Redundant links support granular addressability by making
BL0423 - anchors explicit, also discussed by Gary above, ref SDS 0
BL0424 - 03EU, which means visible and easily copied for reference,
BL0425 - noted in Gary's letter on 020325. ref SDS A6 CQ5O

BL0462 - deliberative analysis, explained in POIMS under a practice
BL0463 - of triangulation. ref OF 1 16EF
BL0465 - ..
BL0466 - For example, Gary's letters today have been saved in

BL0468 - segmented and organized based on objectives for SDS
BL0469 - development, by adding about 150 subjects that facilitate

BL0477 - as a result of work he performed. He can offer corrections

D71538 - 27. The fact that purple numbers alone are an incomplete solution
D71539 - doesn't mean that they wouldn't dramatically improve the
D71540 - usefulness of the email archive - I tried to reference some of
D71541 - the OHS-DEV emails in this reply, but it got to be too hard to
D71542 - bother with. The addition of some of the basic ideas behind
D71543 - purple numbers to the operation of SDS has been very valuable.

D71549 - improving management as "overkill," reported on 890324.
D71550 - ref SDS 1 WR9K Technology that makes good management fast
D71551 - and easy changes these attitudes by empowering people to use
D71552 - good management with less time and effort. Explicit links
D71553 - that take less time and effort to produce a connected record
D71554 - for saving time and money, helps overcome the tendency to
D71555 - use bad management by relying on technology people like,
D71556 - rather than use what is needed for the job. The excuse of
D71557 - omitting connetions in order to expedite is eliminated,
D71558 - because people can create links in only a few seconds. On

D71664 - the document resulted in extracted information and commentaries
