Group 2

Project Log White Paper Project

Our group met tonight for several hours to finish putting

main focuses: adding examples of open source software programs to the
history section of our paper, expanding on our analysis section of our paper,
adding a case study of a business using/important to OSS, and adding graphics throughout our
paper. We ended up expanding our paper by 8 pages, including a table of

Project Log week 10/week11

Last week, week 10, we received the commented on version of the first draft of our paper on OSS and small businesses.  The general prognosis was that while well written, our paper needed more examples or case studies included within it.  This would effectively allow the readers to see how other businesses in similar situations have implemented OSS and what the end results were, allowing them to picture themselves doing something similar. 

Use of Visuals

Discuss at least two kinds of visuals that you plan to incorporate into
Draft 2 of your white paper. What kinds of information will be presented? How
will these visuals communicate information in ways that text might not be able
to handle as effectively? How will these visuals enhance your target audience's
understanding of the issues you address within your white paper?
