Approved

[mottosso]

A method in which to "tag" certain data amongst large amount of data as being "approved".

Goal

Better organise large quantities of versions.

Motivation

During production, some assets build a greater hierarchy of dependencies than others. For example, one asset may have been passed through strict review by directors, supervisors and others stakeholders and are continued to be built upon further down the pipeline.

These assets can be marked "approved" or otherwise "accepted" to signal to others that it is in a good state for continued effort.

Implementation

Highlight assets of particular importance or status.

A version of an asset is tagged with an additional attribute - approved=True. The attribute may be used in applications that require it, such as asset libraries, review and production tracking software.
