However, I was really curious at the end what PMI would say about this topic and I decided to write to PMI customer care
and the answer came now in my inbox. I would like to share this answer with you:
Dear Sven,
Thank you for your question regarding the content of the PMBOK® Guide—Fifth Edition. While we are happy to address any specific corrections or issues related to improving the quality our standards, we are unable to assist in the interpretation or explanation of any part of the standard. PMI standards are developed and reviewed by teams of subject matter experts, but once the standard is published the team is disbanded and there is no ongoing responsibility from the team for providing interpretations of the standard. We recommend that you take advantage of any of a number of resources provided as part of the PMI network, including:
·The PMI Knowledge Center (
www.pmi.org/Knowledge-Center.aspx
) provides links to articles, surveys, and other resources on a variety of project management topics.
