    The proof-of-concept of a &lt;a class=&quot;elementLink&quot;&#xD;
    href=&quot;./../../../core.mdev.common.base/guidances/termdefinitions/method_DEA76035.html&quot;&#xD;
    guid=&quot;_VFAQwAw7Ed2Dzp6jX9I91Q&quot;>method&lt;/a>&amp;nbsp;should be done using the implementation environment you plan to use to&#xD;
    author the actual method. That way you can test the technical feasibility of your architectural ideas in the actual&#xD;
    implementation environment.&#xD;
&lt;/p>&#xD;
&lt;p>&#xD;
    The following are some things that you may want to test out:&#xD;
&lt;/p>&#xD;
&lt;ul>&#xD;
    &lt;li>&#xD;
        Your proposed library structure, including the types of plug-ins you are considering creating, their relationships&#xD;
        and the types of configurations you are considering creating.&#xD;
    &lt;/li>&#xD;
    &lt;li>&#xD;
        Strategy for defining navigation views, identifying any common navigation elements that you may want to share&#xD;
        between views and configurations&#xD;
    &lt;/li>&#xD;
    &lt;li>&#xD;
        Strategy for handling copyrights and release information&#xD;
    &lt;/li>&#xD;
    &lt;li>&#xD;
        and so on.&#xD;
    &lt;/li>&#xD;
&lt;/ul>&#xD;
&lt;p>&#xD;
    As you develop the proof-of-concept, it is important to document any issues and risks that you encounter so that these&#xD;
    can be addressed when more formally defining the method.&#xD;
