If documentation requirements are resources necessary to create
documentation, what would you call a requirement that you have
specific
documents in order to perform a procedure?
Huh?
Does that mean I'm a documentation requirement? ;-) KIDDING!!!
Why hit yourself over the head with confusing docu-babble? "Procedure" is
"documentation"... I suppose that everything required to write it could be
labeled as "documentation requirements". No matter what you call it, it's
the @#*! that helps you get the job done. Call it whatever you want. I think
"hooziewhatsit" has a nice ring to it...
