Re: [PSUBS-MAILIST] OSS Tasklist and SpecSheet release

Warrend-

I studied fault-tolerant distributed embedded systems in grad school, mainly from a software point of view.  Most of the stuff we dealt wth wouldn't apply very well to a PSub; it was mostly embedded systems interacting with fault-tolerant internet data servers.  However, I have studied controller networks under the CAN protocol for automotive applications.  This would likely be an excellent paradigm for our own software / hardware architecture.  But I am getting way ahead of where we are..

So yes, I agree that QA makes a good fit under documentation.  and I can help out with electronics when needed.

It sounds like what you mentioned would be part of the documentation process.
It is very, very, very important that we iron out every flaw in our design and
documentation. I like you suggestion, though, I think I may well add a QA to
each category, explicitly. This wouldn't mean that a separate person would have
to handle QA for each category. I think QA would fall under Mark Steeds documentation
category as a sub-category. Would you be interested in working on the optional
electronics when we get to that point, as well? Do you have any experience with
locked-process and failsafe code? Oh, yes, and Welcome Aboard!

I am employed at Intel in their pre-silicon validation team for the Pentium 4. Other than computer architecture, I studied embedded systems and software design. I could be used to develop software, control systems, or any electronic component. It sounds like there is a fairly large body of expertise in these fields so I propose an additional category: Validation/ Quality Assurance. I could look over design documentation and search for unforseen interactions.
