Subject: Re: [egr-rg] Use Case Repository draft plan

I absolutely agree with Craig: point is that so many use
cases already exist in various groups, and making _those_
accessable should be a major part of the exercise...

Since most of them follow certain templates, it might be
worthwile also to collect the templates, to help other
groups to reuse them, or parts, for their own use cases.

My 2 cents, 

  Andre.
