The rejected promises

Promises that were considered and not made, with the reason.

The part

What it is

These record what the organisation decided not to commit to, which is a different and often more useful statement than what it did commit to.

They are also the raw material for any later revision, and re-deriving them from scratch wastes a considerable amount of time.

The smallest level

The attributes it carries

Each attribute is one of the framework’s shared types. What a date is, and how it is written, is defined once for the whole model — the note here says what it means in this particular place.

Date
When it was considered, so a later reconsideration starts from here.
