Glossary: define GDD, answering Clarity Questions Q48. It is used four times across the new topic pages and defined nowhere on the wiki, while the same sentences write 'Design Document' in the link text beside it - so a reader meets two names for the project's most important page and has to guess they are one thing. Defined here rather than edited off other roles' pages, so both spellings resolve.
