DOCA.3:4.4 - State the proposed contribution and its acceptance expectation
Say what could be supplied, for which receiving use, under what conditions, with what exclusions, and what the receiver could inspect to determine whether that contribution was supplied as proposed. Keep the proposed result, the acceptance criterion, and any actual acceptance separate.
Use A.2.3 when a promise’s content must be identified or relied on. Read an existing provider promise from its actual source; mark a newly constructed promise as proposed. Neither description establishes a provider commitment, capability, access, provision, fulfilment, or achieved benefit.
A research contribution can be a criticism, discriminating experiment, reproducible comparison, or clarification of an unresolved claim. It need not be sold, but its intended epistemic result and evidence standard must still be inspectable. Do not impose a commercial service model on that use.
