Abolish the requirement for 8.3 file name support to install and operate DWA, or at least make the installer warn if the 8.3 file name support is not enabled for an installation target path.

Expand DXL to allow creation and management of ReqIF Definitions in DOORS projects.

Add a description field to Group definition

Besides the group name which already exists, please add a free-text field for "Group Description". When there are many groups defined in a database (particularly when there are multiple projects in a single database), it is sometimes hard to remem...
