So, a LEP contains a few things by the time its implemented: - goals - constraints - design decisions - UI mockups - discussion
Once we land a patch, some of that stuff becomes irrelevant, some becomes 'what if' material, and some stays relevant : the goals and constraints are part of our system forever more. Right now we tend to abandon a LEP that has been implemented; from an IRC discussion today about LEP/FeatureFlags Francis and I are wondering if after a LEP is implemented we: - strip the stuff obsoleted by the implementation - remove the stuff that is redundant with whats live - garden / mark clearly / remove 'what if' material - preserve *and update* goals/constraints on the LEP that we'd get some more value from them. specifically we'd have the ability to say 'hey, whoa' when coming to a implemented LEP and making a change inconsistent with its original constraints/goals. What do you all think? -Rob _______________________________________________ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~launchpad-dev Post to : [email protected] Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~launchpad-dev More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
