I mentioned that I was updating the business use cases or patterns that I had been nurturing along over the years in another blog post.

I am making more progress and am up to 20 business use cases and have added a bunch of new features.  In particular check out:

• The additional use cases added.
• A landing page for each pattern, here is one example.
• Something to help you find the business use case you are looking for.
• An index page which puts everything together.
• A JPEG image for each business use case (see the landing page).
• Creative Commons licences in key areas to make it clear all this is there for others to make use of as they see fit.

Thanks to all those who have sent ideas and have made me aware of errors so that I can correct them.
