Issue 4831: Inconsistent use of name 'ProcessComponent' with EDOC                                                                                                                                                   (spem-ftf)
Source: Adaptive (Mr. Pete Rivett, pete.rivett@adaptive.com)
Nature: Uncategorized Issue
Severity: 
Summary: EDOC uses the name for something completely different: a (higher-level)
(software) component that can enact a business process. There are cases
where both metamodels need to be combined in the same repository and this
causes needless scope for confusion.

Proposed resolution: rename 'ProcessComponent' to 'ProcessModule' since it
is not a Component in the conventional usage of software having well defined
interfaces.

Resolution: Withdrawn by Pete: reject

5. Inconsistent use of name 'ProcessComponent' with EDOC
EDOC uses the name for something completely different: a
(higher-level)
(software) component that can enact a business process. There are
cases
where both metamodels need to be combined in the same repository and
this
causes needless scope for confusion.

Proposed resolution: rename 'ProcessComponent' to 'ProcessModule'
since it
is not a Component in the conventional usage of software having well
defined
interfaces.
