Choosing what to measure · The candidates · Element
The candidate
Each measure being considered.
The part
What it is
Including ones that are not currently collectable, since a measure worth having may justify the instrumentation.
Where a candidate is only on the list because it is available, that is worth marking.
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.
