Comment : | Comment: Proposed addition: Insert a new paragraph "b" and move existing "b" to "c": The new paragraph "b" reads as follows: Recommended change: b. The vendors shall provide internal documentation that defines the software coding standards used that meet the intent of this standard and the ITA shall test for compliance. The internal software coding standard shall be maintained under a revision control system that is in compliance with the CMMI, ISO Quality Standards or similar qualification and audit methods that can be demonstrated to the ITA. Rationale: Those vendors who adopt the CMMI, ISO Quality System or similar system can then maintain continual quality improvement as the state of the art improves by updating their internal documents and not be restricted to adhering to a fixed, aging standard.
