Marketing issue - "Usage" no longer there
In reality, it is covered by relationship
Not a 1:1 mapping of usage to relationshiptypes - so we really shouldn't change the name of relationshipType
Agree that it could solved by documentation - need to make usage clear.
- Will be in the relationshipType definition.
- All relationship types which were formerly usage types should have "used" in the description
- Will also be in the documentation for the relationship types specifically. We can also write an examples document on how usage is documented in relationship types [Jack]
Review of the spreadsheet definitions: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/13MuhIhmdSx5e9B7OCuz_CUoYRtAu-WU08SbIMlym5Xc/edit#gid=585252373
Cursory review looks OK with the possible exception usage (see above)
Suggestion to update static link relationship type -
Agree that the usage should be explainable only by the relationshipType (should not require a file type).
Agree to remove usageType_Source - prefer generatedFrom and generates
Suggestion to add more less obvious examples - e.g. YACC grammar generating a source file
Should we get rid of executable? We can use generated from between the executable and the package it originates with.
Reviewed all usageTypes in the spreadsheet. Green indicates it is fine, red indicates it is removed, and yellow indicates it is either postponed or needs more work.
