Tigris Vision
| Overall Vision of the Tigris Project |

|
|
Much of the success of open-source development has resulted from each developer adding value within his or her
individual area of expertise.
The Tigris platform provides the infrastructure needed for key developers to collaborate effectively across
geographic distances and organizational boundaries. These rapidly assembled teams can quickly react to technical
challenges or create new opportunities.
The Tigris platform can benefit software development organizations in two main ways. First, Tigris can
provide a complete solution for open source development hosting. Hosting an open source project can help
existing software development organizations leverage the skills and interest of the open-source community.
Tigris is also positioned to be a focal point for the community around the further development of the Tigris
platform and the associated suite of tools. We will support the community by supporting known open-source
best practices as well as developing new tools that further enhance collaboration as well as integrating existing
tools into a coherent platform.

| Axioms |

|
Axioms are "atomic" statements that are not argued. These statements underly the definitions and discussion
that follows.
A1. The first goal of collaboration is to produce and maintain a set of desired artifacts.
A2. The second goal of collaboration is the satisfaction of the participants.
A3. Collaborative space consists of artifacts. The dimensions of that space are defined by the types of artifacts
available.
A4. Collaborative time consists of events and milestones.
A5. Participants play roles in collaborartions (a many-to-many relationship). Participants may play different
roles in different collaborations. |

Collaboration: An activity where multiple people work together to define and maintain artifacts. Each project
has goals (requirements artiacts) and deliverables (implementation artifacts). Project deliverables are consumed
by the participants and other members of the community. When working together, people must share artifacts and
coordinate their activities over time.
Community: A group of people who are interested in a set of projects. Most people in the community are not
partipants in any project.
Domain: A space (website) with mulltiple, related projects that are of interest to a community.
Project: The unit of space for collaboration. Projects have members who play roles. Projects contain artifacts.
Artifact: a database record or document containing data that is relevant to the project. Since members collaborate
over time, artifacts must be
Events: Changes to the state of artifacts or participants. E.g. checking in a file, addnig a new item, adding
a member.
Milestones: Conditions on the state of artifacts. E.g., all M1 features implemented, all P1 issues closed.
