What's going On Now?
Let's start fixing InRoads Preferences. If you make the changes it's
easy to get them into the master file:
here's how.
Overall Configuration Progress
As of 1/9/8
|
Phase |
Characteristics |
Status |
|
Expert-Led |
Design the System |
Good |
|
Document the Plan |
Reasonable |
|
Build the Skeleton |
Good |
|
Personal role Well Known |
Ok, for initial phase |
|
Full Participation |
Flesh out the skeleton |
Really good start on the infrastructure |
|
Incorporate Major Improvements from discrete sources |
Xini Manager: code "complete"; must adopt "frequent re-mastering"
methods |
|
Self-Sustaining |
All content experts take leadership in sphere of expertise |
InRoads commands are owned. We need to assign areas of responsibility
for "end results" (plotting, super, templates, etc.) |
|
Major Processes Well Known by all |
I need to document all processes, much to do, soon. |
|
All medium-to-large improvements easily incorporated (only minor efforts
wasted) |
Haven't initiated much |
|
Each "Process" in Entire Scope of Work is led by a content expert
responsible for efficiency |
not yet |
|
Optimum (Continuous Quality Improvement) |
Universal attitude: "Can I make an improvement? Once done, how does
everyone benefit?" |
not yet |
|
Universal ability: improvements very easily
shared. |
not yet |
|
Capture Minor and Disparate Contributions (very low wasted effort) |
not yet |

Current v8 Standards
WARNING: if you are upgrading a file from
MicroStation/J to v8 format you will be prompted for units: Metric,
International Foot or US Survey Foot. Make sure you pick the right Foot
definition as it does make a difference.

Note: these are Works in Progress and have not been (and may not be)
blessed by Higher Authorities. But I think we in the department can all
agree that its better than our current documentation (which does not exist).
