REVIEW from AMAZON.COM
(June 2004)

*Configuration Management Definition:
A project to develop
and publish a Configuration Management (CM)
Practice Standard for 2004.
"Configuration
Management (CM) addresses the composition of a project, documentation
defining the project, and other data that supports the project.
CM is a baseline and requirements management process that
provides managed control to all phases of a project life cycle.
CM is a management discipline that applies technical and
administrative direction to the development, production, and
life cycle support of a project. In achieving this, CM
is a management process for establishing and maintaining consistency
of a project's performance, functional, and physical attributes
with its requirements, design, development, and operational
information
throughout its life..."
