History of Web Planning Process The Evergreen Web Planning Team began work in late summer 2010. The Team is composed of self-selected members of the Evergreen Communications Committee along with other interested members of the greater community, and was led by an external facilitator familiar with open source software communities and online collaboration platforms. text/html 2022-02-10T18:34:57+00:00 Anonymous (anonymous@undisclosed.example.com) https://wiki.evergreen-ils.org/doku.php?id=webteam:webplan:2011:section3_strategicgoals&rev=1644518097&do=diff III. Strategic Goals and Requirements Instead of diving into technical minutiae or discussions about specific software, the Team began with a high-level strategic planning exercise. Web Team members brainstormed a list of strategic goals that would need to be met by an ideal online platform, then refined this list (which included soliciting feedback from the entire community via the general email list). text/html 2022-02-10T18:34:57+00:00 Anonymous (anonymous@undisclosed.example.com) https://wiki.evergreen-ils.org/doku.php?id=webteam:webplan:2011:section4_community&rev=1644518097&do=diff IV.

Since different groups of website users have different requirements, some user stories may only apply to certain user groups, e.g., “Evergreen Developer” or “Potential Evergreen Implementers.” text/html 2022-02-10T18:34:57+00:00 Anonymous (anonymous@undisclosed.example.com) https://wiki.evergreen-ils.org/doku.php?id=webteam:webplan:2011:section6_recommendations&rev=1644518097&do=diff 1. People & Process Creation of an Evergreen Advocate role The Evergreen community has historically been composed largely of Evergreen developers (and other highly-technical people) and understandably led by those developers.
