Public discussion

Responsibility must survive the boundary.

Public discussion focuses on a practical problem: systems can connect while responsibility remains difficult to reconstruct across organisational and system boundaries.

Why this matters

Connected systems do not automatically create connected responsibility.

A workflow can move successfully between people, organisations and software while the responsibility record becomes fragmented. When something later needs to be relied upon, investigated or defended, the organisation may have activity logs but no independently reconstructable account of who held the responsibility and why.

RI technical proposals examine which facts and responses could be preserved across boundaries. Any future common requirements, including their name and form, would be determined by the applicable standards-development process.
