131202 -
131203 - The current update has the following changes....
131204 -
131205 -    1.  On 040513 added new function in SDS records for F1 F1 F6 to
131206 -        capture the string of characters where the cursor is positioned
131207 -        and open the Subject Index.  If the string is an account, then
131208 -        the description the meaning of the string in the SDS record,
131209 -        and if the account is not already in the Subject Index, then
131210 -        the account for the string is created, so the user can enter a
131211 -        description that explains the meaning of the string.
131212 -        ref SDS 25 0001
131214 -         ..
131215 -        Gary proposed this utility for managing acronyms, which are
131216 -        used heavily on his project. ref SDS 25 TJ5J
131218 -  ..
131219 - None of these changes require learning anything new or changing work
131220 - practices, other than to press F1 F1 F6 on a string of consecutive
131221 - characters in an SDS record.
131223 -  ..
131224 - Submitted ref DIT 1 0001 to Gary with a copy to Wayne, and linked to
131225 - this record...
131226 -
131227 -    1.  Made progress on the acronym management feature you suggested,
131228 -        ref DIT 1 AZ4L, as reported in the record on 040513.
131229 -        ref SDS 24 0001
131231 -         ..
131232 -    2.  You can experiment with this new functionality and we can
131233 -        coordinate on improvements.  Notice that the thing wound up
131234 -        being a more generic tool; experience will show how to refine
131235 -        the initial effort. ref DIT 1 MZ5I

310910 -    3.  Thanks for your letter yesterday, ref DIT 1 0001, listing
310911 -        software boards at the Aerospace Company. ref SDS 0 6P75  Looks
310912 -        like there are two boards where SDS may have some afinity: (1)
310913 -        desktop applications ref SDS 0 0Q69, and (2) information
310914 -        management. ref SDS 0 057G

310921 -    4.  The board for "network applications," ref SDS 0 6P5U, and
310922 -        another at the top of the list for "leadership," ref SDS 0
310923 -        6P89, may fit the model of Com Metrics, where accuracy is the
310924 -        core "metric" of communication, developed in telecon with
310925 -        Morris on 950204, ref SDS 1 8A4G, which is routinely "weighed"
310926 -        on the scales of justice, based on alignment with other
310927 -        sources, which is strengthened, by an order of magnitude, using
310928 -        a network to deliver anytime, anywhere "intelligence" that
310929 -        enables a better partnership between leadership and technology,
310930 -        as related in the record on 040513. ref SDS 24 7G8G

310940 -    5.  The record on 040513 now does a better job of explaining this
310941 -        support, with links to relevant authorities and scenarios in
310942 -        foundational documents. ref SDS 24 UO7G  The record is still
310943 -        not finished -- need to complete headlines and add more
310944 -        subjects, but it may provide ideas for following up on the plan
310945 -        related yesterday afternoon for you and Gil to contact Susan
310946 -        with results of meeting with the Architecture Committee, where
310947 -        they requested that you collaborate with Susan on developing
310948 -        requirements for SDS that support the Aerospace company's new
310949 -        initiative on starting a board to improve "Collaboration," as
310950 -        reported on 040513 reviewing results of the board hearing.

310956 -        Collaboration Board Offers Place to Define Scope Based on SDS
310957 -
310958 -    6.  Additionally, we should try to discover the scope of the boards
310959 -        that have more of the elements and objectives that SDS
310960 -        supports. The collaboration initiative is a start.  The initial
310961 -        goal is to find people who at least are comfortable with the
310962 -        language of transformation to a culture of knowledge.  Susan
310963 -        may be helpful on this.
310965 -         ..
310966 -    7.  Whatever we say to Susan should be linked back to the original
310967 -        proposal that calls for SDS to support Com Metrics that
310968 -        augments intelligence, noted in your letter received on 040426.
310969 -        ref SDS 17 0001  Adding alignment to original sources,
310970 -        illustrates our ability to perform what we are calling out as a
310971 -        standard, cited in the letter on 040513, ref SDS 24 UO7G, and
310972 -        moreover, Com Metrics and "intelligence" are the stepping
310973 -        stones to applying SDS in the Aerospace Company network and
310974 -        leadership arenas that require intranet support.
