I'm hoping that it will. Much of the discussion in this thread seems to be related
|
|
to tools for producing documentation. I think that too much focus on the tools and
|
|
the resulting document structure can lead one to produce documentation that is
|
|
difficult for the un-initiated to use.

|
|
Not with documentation in mind, but the parts of the tracks are similar arent they.
|
|
|
|
What I had in mind with these levels is that each of us has many competencies, each
|
|
with its own level of expertise. Any given person may be an "expert in stucco", and
|
|
at the same time know nothing at all about being an "outlaw in Peru"* If one were
|
|
to keep track, the results would paint a finer grained picture of an individual than
|
|
a certification. The classifications would be meant for an individual to classify
|
|
themselves by estimation rather than for someone else to certify them. A user could
|
|
use the classification to focus their initial "view" of documentation appropriate to
|
|
their current level of expertise on a topic by topic.
|
|
|
|
There's an open source project lurking in here somewhere. Interested parties should
|
|
contact me.
