As with most of these things, this is not something that ADNA defines in
any way but as a starting point for discussion, but that is determined by
consensus of those involved. Peter, as representative of one of the
stakeholders most clearly involved, Melbourne IT, has put forward his
definition.  This is the forum in which to discuss whether it should be
generally accepted, or whether the consensus definition is different to
this.  Any thoughts?
