Proposed New Wiki Page

The following is a proposed new wiki page.  The original diagram was a rough organization of stickies.  I used Harry, a new developer, to get some feedback and made some adjustments:

  • The original diagram and key was confusing because: 1) it was unclear that it was about team ownership, and 2) it was thus very unclear why LMS was colored as Educator.
  • In the original "Features" section, it was not entirely clear why some were above LMS/CMS and some were left of, outside of making an attempt at segmenting by team.  I tried another imperfect swag at organization of the boxes below.  The individual small boxes all remain the same.
  • Making Features vs Platform the outer-most organization was confusing.  I tried a different slice, and used the term "Core" in place of "Platform".
  • Most importantly, it was imperfect before and is imperfect now.  I'm not trying to achieve perfection, but simply to capitalize on this work by making something that has some use.

Note: my original intent was to add a doc to the repo itself, but the spreadsheet is more useful in Google Docs.  Therefore, I'll either have only this new wiki page, or I can replicate the diagram and disclaimer in the repo, and have a pointer to the wiki for the rest of the details (the spreadsheet).
