Description Don Macpherson

2010-10-27 16:56:19 EDT

Build Identifier: 1.5.1

The metamodel should be corrected to show Whitepaper as a subclass of GuidanceKind, not a subclass of Concept (as it is currently implemented).  This will remove the deviation from SPEM 2.0 18.3 Guidance Kinds.

Nasty byproducts of this error are that Whitepapers will show as Concepts when using the 'Include elements of Type' filter within a Custom Category 

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1.  Create a method element of type Concept
2.  Create a method element of type Whitepaper
3.  Create a custom category and set 'Include elements of type' equal to Concept.
4.  Observe that custom category includes elements of type Whitepaper.
