    Looks like this will be a hard sell for many orgs who are already struggling with explosion of artifacts on JIRA, sharepoint, github, etc. Also, most of them have somewhat settled on some ways (in past 6-8 months) to produce AI first specs and work with them.

    Also, this looks like something which leadership level folks need to adopt first and then somehow it needs to trickle down to PI planning and sprint planning. Would like to hear someone's experience on how this has got adopted in their org.

      OpenSpec maintainer here. A lot of our adoption has mainly been bottoms-up, it's usually driven by engineers. That being said it definitely helps if everyone on the team uses it together. Especially when shifting left and doing a lot more "spec review".

        Thanks for taking time to respond here. Would love to know from your experience the scale of function-points, team size, client-requirement variance, etc. different teams would have worked with and maintained over a period of time via this open-spec.

        Please note that I can already see that github repo has 68k+ stars. So popularity is not in question, just the viability and consistency of adoption across different scenarios.
