Duns
average cost per word in a colabrate document . | |
The Dun would be the price of a word in a published document coming out of group meetings like the UN or government committees taking into account the salaries , travel , costs and time .
The accountants would then have a yard stick on the white paper and public might be able to judge some value .
-
The groups may inherently go long winded to bring the price down . The documents would still have to be judge for meaning value ?????
This would be installing more bureaucracy but at least there would be a metric guideline .
A Dun would sure twist how you would see your boss's memo .

I prefer academia's (and Google's) definition of document value - the more people who reference/cite that document, the more valuable it is. |

Interesting metric. Too low and the document is H/B. Too high and it's excrement from a gravy-train. |
|

How would you figure out the cross-charging when documents referenced other documents? |

top news bulletin replication . This is not 'value' checking but rather monetary cost measuring . |

[ pertinax ]
A referenced document has , in theory , already been paid for so those Duns should have been set . |
|
| |
The words in the new document are copied so little or no time is used therefore lowering the overal Duns .
A slightly modified document would still involve costs
of the people and extras making the modification . |

? Duns of a sub-commitee versus picking up a mercury AAA battery from the school playground ? |
