Thanks, Adrian.  IIRC, the system boundary is optional, and according to one
source it's rarely used.

With all the flavours and styles of UCD, I'd like to see us settle on a
standard style that we and the examiners will be happy with.  A local style
guide, sort of thing.  That way we can more easily concentrate on the basic
concepts and spend less time haggling about stylistic details.

In ITA we gravitated towards a simple, standard (activity on arrow), simple
(no optimistic/pessimistic estimates) PERT chart that people were happy to
use.  We seem to be happy with our DFD rules and style.  Having the same for
these new UCDs would be a relief for many furrowed brows, I reckon.

Do people think this is worthwhile?

If not as many people are getting Brasilians,
does this mean that waxing is waning?
