more course tutorials visit www.cmgt410.com Wk 5
Discussion - Feature Requests All projects are
perfect at the beginningbut few are perfect when
they end. Sometimes, project managers gather
descriptions of features that weren't included in
the initial release of a product and slate them
for inclusion into a "2.0" version of the
deliverables. Imagine you have been asked to
submit a feature request for the VitalSource
application you use to read your textbook for
this course. What feature would you request?
