| 31 | +Overview |
| 32 | +^^^^^^^^ |
| 33 | + |
| 34 | +The module process_description provides a process model establishing organization rules |
| 35 | +for developing open source software in the automotive industry, which can be used in |
| 36 | +safety and security context. |
| 37 | + |
| 38 | +The process model provides processes, which conform to state-of the art standards |
| 39 | + |

| 46 | +---------- |
| 47 | + |
| 48 | +This release note does not "release for production", as it does not come with a safety |
| 49 | +argumentation and a performed safety assessment. |
| 50 | +The work products compiled in the safety package are created with care according to a |
| 51 | +process satisfying standards, but the project, being a non-profit and open source |
| 52 | +organization, can not take over any liability for its content. |

| 62 | +Contains now Features, Components as own elements, adapt linkage names, e.g. |
| 63 | +Requirements are now "derived_from" parent requirements, correct some linkages between |
| 64 | +elements |
| 65 | + |
| 66 | +Module Templates removed from Folder Templates and |
| 67 | +(https://eclipse-score.github.io/process_description/main/folder_templates/index.html) |
