Each architecture review was conducted within Sun's control. With the advent of Free Open Source Software processes the control that Sun as a company can wield has been diminished. Now that Sun is moving to a more fluid delivery mechanism with project Indiana we need to evolve the architecture review process. This document is meant to aid in the architecture review process. Each new project must complete this check list to help ensure that the overall resulting product conforms to Sun product standards. If the project deviates from these standards further review would be necessary by an architecture review committee. After the check list is completed the project team should be able to determine if a project can be automatically approved. This will occur if all checks result in no "ARC review required" answers. A committee member will assist the project team in filing the automatically approved fast track. An automatically approved fast track is still required in order to record the interfaces for future reference. If the project needs to have further review then follow the regular process for getting projects reviewed. 1.0 Project Information 1.1 Name of project/component hexedit: view and edit files in hexadecimal or in ASCII 1.2 Author of document Ben Dischinger (Benjamin.Dischinger@sun.com) 2.0 Project Summary 2.1 Project Description This project proposes to integrate hexedit version 1.2.12, a tool for editing and searching through binary files. 2.2 Release binding What is is the release binding?
