Hi - I would like to find out what the acronym "DOORS" stands for - yet I find this a little elusive to locate among the documentation I have.

Does anyone have an authoritative answer?

Thanks!

One for trivia fans, the old database port number used ot be 36671, spells DOORS on a telephone keypad.

Thanks very much.  Where do I find this in the DOORS documentation or on-line help?

I have to admit - this is somewhat of a small debate where I work -- Some believe it stands for "Dynamic Object Oriented Requirements System", some say "Dynamic Object Orientated Requirements System."

I find it just odd that something as basic as the acronym is not spelled out anywhere at all - or I am completely missing it, which is entirely possible.

Thanks!

Just spells "DOOR " on my phone! "DOORS" would be 36677, which is what the port number really is!

I have a sneaky feeling this is one of those problems of the difference between English English and American English. Or it might just be that one of the spellings is plain wrong. Of course, being an English Englishman, I'd have to say that the American English spelling is inherently wrong

As a former five year resident of UK, I can attest to this.

However, it does not strike me that the use of "oriented" vs. "orientated" is a nomenclature delta I've seen in technical writing whilst ( ) living in the UK.
