Well, that's two 'for' and zero 'against.'  Will assume the=20
silent majority is 'for' (or at least neutral) and proceed.

Let's start where we left off -- with the one sentence
description of req encap:

"Create one functionality module for each unique stimulus
set of the functionality tree."

This begs explanation of the following:

* stimulus sets
* functionality trees
* unique (a reference to requirements reuse)
* functionality modules

The sentence could just as accurately be written:

"Create one functionality module for each unique behavior table."

So we need to cover:

* behavior tables

And underlying everything is the question "What are requirements?"
which is answered by:

* concept models
* definition of requirements


That should be a minimum starter set.  Will add more if
questions and other feedback indicate a need.

The logical progression is:

* concept models
* definition of requirements
* stimulus sets
* functionality trees
* unique (requirements reuse)
* behavior tables
* functionality modules

We will cover one topic at a time, and will move on to the=20
next after all questions and comments about the current topic=20
are addressed.  That way hopefully we won't loose anyone.=20=20
Just to be tidy, will start the first topic, concept models,=20
in a separate email.

If anyone has any suggestions for improving for this process,=20
quite possible given we have other instructors on the list,=20
please let me know.
