In doing this (ie formalizing SEMAT content in a prototypical, extended version 
of SPEM ) 
would you use EPF Composer?

  Bruce, thanks for taking the time to do this review. FWIW, it still seems to 
me that what SEMAT's trying to achieve is pretty compatible with SPEM as a 
starting point. I have not seen anything yet that appears to be a showstopper.

   

  I do plan on getting more involved, particularly around formalizing SEMAT 
content in a prototypical, extended version of SPEM.

  Subject: [epf-dev] Review of the proposed SEMAT language specification

   

  Hello EPF Community, 

  The following is a summary of my review of the SEMAT language, including a 
mapping to the SPEM/UMF constructs used by the EPF Practices library. 

  My conclusions are that SPEM/UMF and SEMAT are very compatible and should be 
aligned. 





  My review does not include the current language specification, as the SEMAT 
team has not yet released it for public consumption. 
  Here is a summary of the language provided by the SEMAT team (sorry for the 
lack of detail). 



  The SEMAT core team is focussed on evolving their own new ideas, and not on 
alignment with SPEM, but  I will continue to push for alignment. 

  In addition to defining a language, SEMAT is also defining a set of 
"universals" the roughly correspond to our work product slots.  The main 
difference 
  is that universals have state.  Universal states are a way to think about 
project progress.  So you can talk about how the requirements are progressing, 
how the architecture is progressing, etc.  This is an interesting innovation 
that could be useful in EPF as well. 
  I plan to do a separate study of how EPF Practices could make use of 
universals and universal states. 

  If anyone is interested in participating in such an effort, let me know.   

  Also anyone that is interested in participating in SEMAT is welcome to do so. 
  Contact Ivar Jacobson <i...@ivarjacobson.com> to ask to participate.  If you 
don't get a response, you can also ask one of the track chairs - contact
