Please do so.
For me, this approach is especially interesting related to PIM/GTD.
Without looking into Wikipedia or such and without deeper background
knowledge, I'd have *guessed*:
- systems are made of processes
- system is a higher level process, accomplishing bigger things than a
task
- a process defines a method to accomplish a task
- frameworks are generic tools for implementing a process
- a method is the underlying principle of how a process is designed
YMMV :-)
