(4) What is the name of the new section? Is it one section or two?
The title of §3.2, for example, calls out what appears to be one section
("Operations and Manageability Considerations Section"), but they are
mentioned independently in other places. And still in other cases, only
the Operational Considerations section is mentioned (in §3.1, for example).
Is the intent that one section covers both topics? If so, please be clear
and consistent about it.
Also, most of the document talks about "manageability considerations", but
a couple of places use "management considerations". The same for
"operations" and "operational".
The section should be called “Operational and Management Considerations” to
make clear that both operational and managment considerations are being
discussed in the section. The section is often referred to as “Operational
Considerations”, but that does not make it clear that both operations and
management issues are being discussed. And as the document itself clarifies,
operational considerations != management considerations.
[CMP] This is a bit tricky…
[CMP] “Management” is a noun, with associated adjective as “Managerial”.
[CMP] While I always wrote "Operational and Management Considerations”, and I
think this is the most widely used variation, I feel this might benefit from
some thinking.
[CMP] The title of the document is "Considering Operations and Management”.
[CMP] Are there implications of non-modifying-noun versus adj-modifying-noun
constructs?
[CMP] “Operational and Management Considerations"
[CMP] “Operational and Managerial Considerations"
[CMP] “Operations and Management Considerations"
[CMP] I’d say that ‘manageability’ is not an option here as it’s a subset of
management of the how manageable but not the act of managing.
[mj] Thanks for laying out all the options. My vote is still with “Operational
and Management Considerations”.
[AF] While the current text is a work in progress, the author team intended to
migrate all of the text to a single “Operational Considerations” section that
covers Operations and Management. There was a lot of debate on a couple of
“team” calls and, IIRC, back and to in the Comments in github. The nub of the
debate was, “Under what circumstances are Management Considerations not
Operational Considerations?” While, of course, Operational Considerations
include elements that are not Management Considerations.
Cheers,
Adrian
