Comment (by mattdm):
Thanks for helping, Mo! We could really benefit from good design here,
because I want this to be a model for planning Fedora Objectives in
general. (So, it'd be nice to be reusable.)
I know a lot of logic model diagrams end up being kind of foofy on the
actions and resources side, with inputs like "the community" and actions
like "community building". For the objectives, I'd like those to actually
get specific. Then, this _directly_ becomes the plan with a clear budget
built in — or a budget, with a built-in justification.
I kind of think a tree might be the right model, with the resources being
leaf nodes at one edge, feeding into actions, feeding into outputs, and so
on. Possibly some of the outputs criss-cross to feed into multiple
outcomes, and then everything feeds into the glorious fulfillment of the
mission and vision.
In my mind, this is a dynamic tree structure, starting with the impact at
the top and with outcomes expanded; you could then drill down into the
specifics. And below the outputs level, it would be nice to have an
easily-edited dynamic document, as plans change and specific outputs are
completed. Actually, it could even be a living document above that, with
outputs checked off as they're accomplished and metrics updated (I'm not
going to say automatically) as actual impact occurs.
(That all sounds grandiose, but one way to do that is simply a wiki page
with nested header elements and collapsible blocks. Ugly but functional!)
