 * 2) Information Plan: target audience, audience and document goals, content that may be included, environments the document will be used in, and localization.
 * 3) Project Plan: time estimations, the deliverable, subject matter experts, required resources, and metric counts (what can be done, for example, rewrite 120 pages or generate 30 new ones).
 * 4)  Content Specification: detailed research into content, subject, and audience goals.
 * 5)  Implementation: design and develop the deliverable.
 * 6)  Localization and Production: translation and the final product deliverable.
