Default Order of Events

This is the sequence of events that should be followed when creating a new species in the CAP Project. Each bullet represents a "step" or event in the creation process. Multiple events on one "bullet", means the events should be kicked off simultaneously. Topic Leaders should adhere to this event sequence as much as possible.

A thread should be created by the TL for each event in the process. Thread names are listed below. Each thread name should be prefixed with "CAP x -", with "x" being a numeric designation of the sequence of the overall project.

Detailed descriptions for each event are contained in the CAP Process - Event Descriptions.
