A Requirement Elicitation Method in Collaborative Software Development Community

We developed a collaborative software development community-ware whose goal is to provide practical tasks for the students in software engineering education in a university and to provide software for education purpose. We performed a pilot experimentation for the community-ware. The results show that software requesters made software change requests for not only functional aspects but also user interface. This paper proposes a user interface oriented requirement elicitation process. The process is that software requesters present functional requests and user interface design which met the requests. Then based on the requests and the user interface, developers and software requesters decide priority for each requirement in a collaborative manner.
