Okay, I think I've got this. The key is understanding the GB 50174-2008 code and what it specifies for A-class computer rooms. If the code says the seismic fortification should not be less than two categories, then the answer must be True.

I've used the mongo shell before for querying and admin tasks, so I'm pretty familiar with those. But I'm not sure I've ever seen it used as a full-fledged JavaScript framework. I'll have to double-check that one.

Okay, I think the key here is to hit the main areas of requirements management - the work plan, the definition process, and the traceability matrix. I'll make sure to hit those points in my answer.
