The Engineering Resources team has just updated information on blueprints in the wiki. The page is the same:
https://wiki.linaro.org/Process/Blueprints
Before going further I want to clarify: The changes *do not* add additional work to anyone. The goal was to make everyone's life a little _easier_.
The changes were driven by feedback, experience, and discussions at UDS. So let me first answer the "what's in it for me" question:
* consistency - in the past, information wasn't totally consistent. The new pages should be consistent in content and also consistent with what you here when you ask around about things.
* clarity - Linaro uses blueprints for more than one purpose and in the past we haven't been that clear on this matter.
* one less blueprint - Linaro has sort of done 3 types of bp's: 1) Engineering Blueprint 2) Tech Requirement Blueprint 3) Session Scheduling Blueprint
The 3rd type isn't always needed now, and we've clarified when you would need this. This will be in my yearly review as "a 50% reduction in blueprints" :)
Summary of changes:
* the old Blueprints page you remember is now mostly contained in: https://wiki.linaro.org/Process/Blueprints/EngineeringBlueprint
* the new main page shows you the two types of bp's and helps lead you to the proper page in the wiki that you are needing information on.
* a new page for Tech Requirement Blueprints: https://wiki.linaro.org/Process/Blueprints/TRBlueprint
* scheduling sessions at UDS: https://wiki.linaro.org/Process/Blueprints/SchedulingBlueprint
* two new pages based on Mounir's past work: https://wiki.linaro.org/Process/Blueprints/ImplementationWorkflow https://wiki.linaro.org/Process/Blueprints/DefinitionWorkflow
