Key:
Priority 1 - Highest, 2 - Secondary, 3 - Tertiary; N/A = Not (reasonably) Achievable
Level Of Effort marked using a Star Rating * (1) Low Effort, ** (2) Moderate/Medium, or *** (3) Higher / but still Reasonable Effort Required, N/A = Not (reasonably) Achievable
Time Frame for Start/Completion of Project** a. less than 6 months; b. 6-18; c. 18 months or longer
ALSO need to add Mind mapping and other 'visualisations' and ICANN based reference, papers policies etc., link to other frames.
