Based on my limited experience, I'd say "Improvement" is an "enhancement" of existing feature, and "New Feature" is new feature. :-) Most project/bug track systems use both of them. However, there is not strict difference between them, an Enhancement sometime looks like a new feature. And a new feature can be treated as an enhancement as well.

Hi, Does anyone understand what the difference is between an "Improvement" and a "New Feature"? My hope is that "Improvement" is a strict superset of "New Feature". Should we strive to use "Improvement" rarely, only for bits of functionality that exist but need to be nominally tweaked, and use "New Feature" for other things? Maybe "New Feature" is for things that will need mentioning in docs etc, and "Improvement" is for things that just need tweaks in code? -Patrick -- Patrick Linskey BEA Systems, Inc. _______________________________________________________________________ Notice: This email message, together with any attachments, may contain information of BEA Systems, Inc., its subsidiaries and affiliated entities, that may be confidential, proprietary, copyrighted and/or legally privileged, and is intended solely for the use of the individual or entity named in this message.
