Editor's Notes
Implementing Governance involves several key pieces:
Developing Taxonomies
Implementing a Governance document that details the goals, vision, mission and metrics of your governance plan
How you plan to approach training the many different types of users
What type of features will you use and offer to your users
What your Information Architecture will look like
A well developed policies and procedures document for each area in WSS, MOSS, customization and development
How your operations team will deal with Configuration and Release Management
