Discussion
There are 7 definitions of baseline in the standards covered by the IEEE sevocab database. The included definition seems most appropriate for SEBoK use. See http://www.computer.org/sevocab for more detail.
The SEVOCAB entry provides 7 definitions followed by this note: A baseline should be changed only through formal configuration management procedures. Some baselines may be project deliverables while others provide the basis for further work. Baselines, plus approved changes from those baselines, constitute the current configuration identification.
