> From a development management perspective, BDD could be extremely useful in 
> helping to track and understand who is creating specifications and when they 
> are being injected.
> Since requirements like this will vary between users, it would be a good idea 
> to implement as generically as possible and then provide an example or 
> reference.
> My thoughts on what would be useful in my own situation:
> - A way to indicate the Author(s) of a scenario
> - A way to indicate the Owner of a story
> - A way to indicate the Creation Date of a scenario
> - A way to indicate the Last Update Date of a scenario
> - The injection phase of the scenario (eg. grooming, planning, development...)
> I don't think these should be included in the grammar as individual, specific 
> elements, but perhaps the grammar could have a syntax for optional 
> meta-information.  The grammar would allow a word (eg. Meta:) followed by a 
> category, perhaps emphasized with a symbol (eg. @Author) and then followed by 
> any arbitrary text.
> This would allow interesting things...
> Meta: @Author John
> Meta: @Role Product Owner
> Meta: @Created 2009-11-08
> Meta: @Injection Backlog Grooming
> -OR-
> Meta: @Author Fred
> Meta: @Role Quality Engineer
> Meta: @Created 2009-12-02
> Meta: @Injection Sprint Planning
> -OR-
> Meta: @Author Colin
> Meta: @Role Developer
> Meta: @Created 2009-12-10
> Meta: @Injection Development
> Being able to say that, for instance, only 20% of scenarios are created in 
> backlog grooming, while another 20% are created in sprint planning and 60% 
> are created during development would be very useful in identifying and 
> resolving process impediments and training product owners and teams to define 
> requirements earlier so they don't run into velocity impacts when they are 
> discovered late in a sprint.
> Allowing meta-data would enable scenario management tool development.
