I never said it was sufficient.  Just FYI, I've always found that models
don't even start to become interesting until they account for "3."  Having
said that, I'm using the XP definition, as printed.  If seperating decisions
into business and technical works for XP, why do you think it's insufficient
for the discussion?

I can tell you've put a lot of thought into this and I don't want to do
anything but encourage you because it really doesn't.  I can tell you're not
comfortable, but I can't tell what it is that's causing you trouble.  If I
had to take a stab at repeating back what you've told me, it seems like a
discomfort that there's going to be a decision made somewhere that you
didn't get to participate in and with which you disagree.  Is that anywhere
close?

Me either, but I'm willing to be led ;-)

Best regards,
