Dear Felix, all, > "Requirements / use case" documents in W3C are very heterogenous: > > a) very short "requirements" documents like > http://www.w3.org/TR/2008/CR-xquery-update-10-requirements-20080314/ > they contain basically a list of requirements, without detailed > discussion, and with pointers to other documents which provide the > background > b) very long "requirements" documents like > http://www.w3.org/TR/2008/WD-widgets-reqs-20080625/ > which contain rationale and background explanations. The MMSEM XG work > belongs into that category I think. I would like to mention another example, most likely in the middle between a) and b), which is the SKOS use cases and requirements document, http://www.w3.org/TR/skos-ucr/ The whole process for making this document is also interesting and could be a source of inspiration for this group. The SWD WG has gathered these requirements using mainly the wiki, see http://www.w3.org/2006/07/SWD/wiki/UCRMaterial for the history of changes. Basically, a template for UC has been agreed on, and then, the WG found easier to harmonize all the use cases. The whole community has been consulted, i.e., non WG members have also provided feedback and new use cases using the wiki facility and the public mailing list.
