Ok, sparing the mundane details of interoffice juggling, it turns out that
the personas he is using are not the ones that I will have to use. I'll be
able to create my own, and I am planning on using user research to base them
on. (Getting that is another internal issue, but I'm hopeful).

So sorry for the detour, but I still learned some good things from
everyone's comments, so thank you.

I guess that brings me back to my original question about biz requirements
and I think the situation here dictates leaving them out.

Right now I'm going to base my personas on Steve Mulder's book, with a bit
of cross pollination from Todd Warfel's template. If there are any
suggestions on persona stuff I should look at before I begin, that would be
appreciated.

Thanks!
