The idea of the book is that it has some general overview sections
at the beginning and then, depending on your interest, you have a
set of sections that are applicable to you that you should read. The
hope is that these later sections can be more focussed and relevant
that trying to cover everything for everybody which I think the
previous document suffered from. Also, we are trying to emphasise
the goals and uses of MO rather than the technology, so putting the
horse back in front of the cart.....<br>
<br>
So, please, any comments you have on anything, but ideally other
stakeholders and the sections they would want. If you could send
those to me by Monday the 24th of April that would be brilliant.<br>
<br>
We hope to release a first draft of the document in time for us to
discuss in San Antonio. It will not be complete and will most likely
only cover a few sections but should give us an idea of direction
and style.<br>
<br>
