0504 - Summary/Objective
0505 -
050501 - Follow up ref SDS 5 0000, ref SDS 4 0000.
050502 -
050503 - Received ref DRT 1 0001 from Peter de Bruyn Kops who is with the
050504 - Canada Customs and Revenue Agency (CCRA-ADRC), saying...
050505 -
050506 -       I recently came across an article on the Internet called
050507 -       "Reviewed ISO 10006 on Project Management, compared PMBOK."
050508 -       created in 1995, which I found to be quite useful.
050510 -            ..
050511 -           As noted in the letter on 020726, a lot of time is saved by
050512 -           providing a link to the actual record, and it only takes a
050513 -           second or two to use explicit links in SDS. ref SDS 3 636G
050515 -            ..
050516 -           In this case, Peter's effort to specify the year and subject
050517 -           of the record helped locate the target of his inquiry which
050518 -           is dated 950721. ref SDS 1 0001
050520 -            ..
050521 -           Peter's feedback noting the SDS record on the Internet is
050522 -           useful, aligns with reports from others who have been helped
050523 -           by this new way of working, shown by the list on 010907,
050524 -           ref SDS 2 KX3L, and most recently on 021228. ref SDS 5 0001
050526 -  ..
050527 - Peter asks....
050528 -
050529 -       Is there a more up to date version of this [record on 950721]
050530 -       ref DRT 1 6Y5O
050531 -
050532 -           The record on 950721 is continually maintained up to date
050533 -           within the meaning of a "Knowledge Repository," as seen by
050534 -           forward links showing integration with current events.  In
050535 -           recent years, for example, there are a lot of links to work
050536 -           on Knowledge Management, which is a new discipline that
050537 -           advances the practice of project management, as explained in
050538 -           POIMS. ref OF 2 X16L
050540 -            ..
050541 -           Examples showing the record on 950721 is up to date....
050542 -
050543 -              Documenting the "management cycle"
050544 -              process aligns with government
050545 -              regulations requiring good management
050546 -              practicees, which are widely
050547 -              ignored, reveiwed earlier this
050548 -              year on 020504................... 950721, ref SDS 1 1Q5L
050550 -               ..
050551 -              Accountability driving force of
050552 -              good management, aligns with
050553 -              traditional training and education
050554 -              but is universally feared and
050555 -              ignored.......................... 950721, ref SDS 1 2221
050557 -               ..
050558 -              Continually learning requirements
050559 -              align with Tofflers ideas about
050560 -              the future of education, and with
050561 -              Doug Engelbart's vision for
050562 -              continual improvement............ 950721, ref SDS 1 2846,
050564 -  ..
050565 - Peter asks further...

050568 -       ref DRT 1 6Y5O
050570 -            ..
050571 -           SDS records on the Internet can be opened with Microsoft
050572 -           Word, after saving to the local disk, and then converted
050573 -           into a Word document,
050574 -
050576 -  ..
