OK. Fair enough.

Damn. Now I have to figure out why it's misspelt...

Heh. You really do enjoy subtly implying that I'm more important than I 
really am, eh? ;-)

How about "rigourous recording of changes"?

It's gone.

"Soft systems" being opposite to "hard systems".

Hard systems are things with specific, typically scientific or 
mathematical requirements. E.g., programming the robotics for an 
assembly line would be a hard problem.

Soft systems are warm, fuzzy things that are ill-defined. The kind of 
thing where figuring out exactly what you're trying to do is usually the 
hard part.
