Isn't it also appropriate to define and communicate the value that is possible (or not) with the additional features/performance of one product over another to the business?
In other words, aside from features that 'developers want to play with', there are features and benefits that may be realized if the business is aware that they are options. 'Business needs' is an interesting conundrum, I would opine that 10 years ago, almost no business needed an IM solution, and currently many companies consider that a need. Technology influences business needs, is I guess what I'm getting to. - Calvin On 5/20/05 8:37 AM, "Micha Schopman" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > It might be useful to determine your business needs as opposite to what > features developers want to play with.
