I had to stare at that.

&lt;p&gt;Part of the problem is that &amp;quot;change management processes&amp;quot; are usually &amp;quot;change prevention processes&amp;quot; mislabeled.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;We also have the issue of &amp;quot;don't spend time on doc - spend time on code&amp;quot; that is regularly oversimplified.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;It's true that the goal is to deliver software, not doc (requirements or design). &amp;nbsp;However, having good doc does enable delivery of software.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Nice thorny, unresolved issue.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Anyway - good article, trying to force me to think about stuff that I don't have time to do today, as I'm buried in some business analysis tasks at the moment. &amp;nbsp;Looking forward to reading more here, and thanks for the link!&lt;/p&gt;
