The problem with sharing real examples is that they are generally the intellectual property of the firm that paid for them. It's hard or impossible to do. The...
Now that we have 33 members in this group, I'd like to gauge where we start. What's the level of knowledge? Do we need to start at the beginning and explain...
Would the Bowling Game example of Ron Jeffries be too trivial a toy problem to illustrate color modeling/FDD? If not, it would certainly provide a comparison...

David, Thanks for the detailed explanation! Most of this detail is definitely left out of JMCU, but your description does ring some bells from having once...
Clearly the "Party pattern" i.e. a superclass abstract green called Party that has tangible subclasses such as Person and Organization is a useful pattern....
... The examples on my web site are numerous. Search for "bowling game" if interested. But I think the problem, which is designed to be implemented with TDD...
