(I did not try)
can the tool be used in a SIL-rated development process? There is a mention of this in the "Existing industrial usage" section, but I suggest to put it as a top-level item in the template.
For instance: are the underlying assumptions of the model acceptable WRT the development of systems evolving in real physical environment? This might not be the case if we consider models with a discrete (tic-based) model of time.
People or parties who have developed this and are currently driving the project including their affiliations
If different, version of the tool that should be used for the project
