True, and I think a mix of samples and archetypes would be good.
What I was thinking was if the samples where completed archetypes - ie. for a loan broker or something you have 3-4 archetypes and are completed with the "business" requirements. Thus giving people the completed picture, and allowing them the basis for building it. P On 7/22/06, Guillaume Nodet <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote:
I do agree. However, I' m still not sure if archetype can completely replace samples. I guess they can if they can show something usefull, but will it be the case for all archetypes ?
