Welcome to the WorldVistA "Brainstorming" Projects Page

The Projects page is the working directory of WorldVistA project ideas. All project concept are welcome - new and old.

The Process

  1. Project ideas and description will be collected and published on this page.
  2. High-level benefit analysis will be applied.
  3. Suggestions will be reviewed, prioritized and endorsed by the WorldVistA leadership.
  4. Funding will be sought and teams will be organized for projects that are determined to be of high value and show promise of successful completion.

Brainstorming Rules:

  1. Offer and collect as many ideas as possible. 
  2. All ideas are valuable, the more the better. One crazy idea spawns three rational ideas. 
  3. Don't spend time discussing details during brainstorming phase. Ideas submitted will be analyzed  and deconstructed at length later...
  4. Do not be critical of ideas, it stifles the process and make creative thinkers go back into the box.
  5. Build on other ideas. Linking one idea to another is powerful.
  6. Capture all ideas and make them visible.
  7. Set a time limit. This iteration close on 6/29/2007.
