A little bit between axonometric and bird's eye vieuw I think, maybe the possibility to lower the camera.

Yes you may. But trouble is you expect an answer too, don't you? CRC means Class-Responsibility-Collaboration (thanks Chris). In a CRC workshop you decide what responsibilities a class should have and with what other classes it should collaborate. As ChrisCF said it's usally a meeting where everyone can suggest responsibilities and collaborations. Hence, it tends to take a while.

If one is going to inscribe as loquatiously, at least do so correctly ;)

I hate to be the bringer of bad news (again) but, no sooner is my network card issue fixed, am I invited to a family party on the Saturday night - family from South Africa over for a visit. I'm also worried somewhat about the weekend after, that I've possibly forgotten something I need to do then ...
Sorry guys. Big thanks go to the people that are still turning up and moving the project forward in small steps - remember the proverbial "journey of a thousand miles". :)

I might also suggest that, in general, a CRC workshop is postponed at least until some of the documents are done - they will be necessary.

To postpone the CRC sounds fair, if noone objects I shall remove it from the agenda of this weeks planned meeting. Oh and thanks for the spelling/grammar correction :wink: !

I goggled for axonometric and got this:
http://www.compuphase.com/axometr.htm

I short it describe two axonometric projections, isometric and dimetric. Acording to Hyronymus images, it seams like he have not mixed up axonometric with orthogonal.

your source says:
"It compares the axonometric projection, or parallel perspective, to the linear perspective"

I think the two pictures are [Single Building] "isonometric Projection (parallel Projection, axonometric projection)" and [City Florenz] "One "Fluchtpunkt" Perspective" (Central Projection, Perspective Projection)

(Thats what I learned in Art Class, may be wrong but hassent failed me yet)

Everyone please read the first post in this topic and check if all topics are mentioned. It's easier to change it before the meeting starts then once the meeting is in progress.

Tell everyone you have an important meeting to attend to. That's what I did last week and it worked.
