Engineering needs a some what detailed description. More times than not the idea name is the only thing engineering has to work off of to start. More is needed if sales wants to see their ideas accelerated through the feature promotion, prioritization, and engineering planning process. Description would be a minimum, and sample configs, pointers to CRD or SRD (if exists), performance and scale expectations. Memory requirements, and max/min ranges for idea are needed.
