The data in the spreadsheet is really the most valuable part! I like the idea of using a small DSL to manage this, we actually already have some (very simple) DSL-like things in the spreadsheet to make it easier on editors of the spreadsheet.
Of course, with systems like JAMA, that automatically ingest Word docs and extract requirements, even to the point of generating verification tests, in turn kicking off dependency updates, the development loop becomes quite tight.
We definitely have to improve on the process that exists right now, as it's quite cumbersome to get all set up, and won't really generalize to new devices, but it's been a great learning experience, and I think it's really improved our development process overall!
Definitely a very complex problem to automate in the general case, makes sense why the JAMAs and Greenlight Gurus of the world can charge ungodly sums per seat.
