Painless Functional Specifications - A series of articles on writing functional specifications. "Software engineers who dive into code without writing a spec tend to think they're cool gunslingers, shooting from the hip. They're not. They are terribly unproductive.

Part 2: What's a Spec?

Part 4: Tips

I'm going to read the Painless Schedules article as well.
