Few really understand the VistA "Enterprise View, Life Cycle Principles" that the hardhats evolved while CMU SEI was evolving the Software Engineering Body of Knowledge (SWEBOK) which we wwere all part of when the concepts were mutually discussed in Sept 1998 at an MDC meeting. We just have to get that story told and the hardhats who made the VistA possible clearly recognized - and there are many, so we have lots f informing to do.

A report done for the administration suggests that the VA's multibillion-dollar plan to upgrade its system is "not realistic."
A $3.5-billion computer overhaul at veterans hospitals across the country is
poised to fail unless the Department of Veterans Affairs makes drastic changes, according to a closely guarded government study obtained by the St.
Petersburg Times . http://www.sptimes.com/2005/04/13/Worldandnation/VA_faces_another_comp.shtml -- Nancy Anthracite
