0605 - Summary/Objective
0606 -
060601 - Followed up work at ref SDS 11 line 105, ref SDS 10 line 96, ref SDS 8 line 101, ref SDS 7 line 97, ref SDS 5
060603 - 96, ref SDS 2 line 345, ref SDS 1 line 219.

060605 - Following the meeting on the Richmond project, Tom gave me a copy of
060606 - Max's comments on the initial draft memo, ref OF 5 line 17, on
060607 - Communication Metrics, submitted last week, ref SDS 11 line 106. It
060608 - is a little difficult to make out all of his edits, but I tried to
060609 - capture them in ref OF 6 line 17. He changes the following sentence:
060610 -
060611 - Welch's work indicates Communication Metrics integrates dialog
060612 - and documents to improve understanding and follow up, reducing
060613 - risk of error, ref OF 5 line 26.
060614 -
060615 - ...to:
060616 -
060617 - Welch's work provides documents to improve understanding and
060618 - follow up, reducing risk of error, ref OF 6 line 26.
060619 -
060620 - The difficulty with this is that it changes the focus from
060621 - Communication Metrics as a management science to Welch as a good
060622 - worker. The evaluation report is on Communication Metrics, so we
060623 - need to focus on it, and simply cite Welch as an example showing
060624 - how Communication Metrics works when applied by an expert
060625 - Communication Manager.
060626 -
060627 - Another difficulty is that Max has eliminated language explaining
060628 - Communication Metrics integrates documents and dialog which is the
060629 - strength of Communication Metrics and the characteristic which
060630 - distinguishes it from RMS and other "document control/management"
060631 - tools. This commingles tools and methods.
060632 -
060633 -
060634 - I am now going to create a new draft for his consideration to more
060635 - closely accomplish the objectives of the memo.
