		<description><![CDATA[Have you ever experienced that a task has been agreed, and half-way through somebody comes back beaming with the statement &#8220;it&#8217;s done!&#8221;? Every once in a while, this happens, and it happens more often in distributed teams than in localized ones. The point is: there was no real agreement about when the task is done.

Thanks for drawing my attention to it! Thanks to both your articles, I have nothing to add.
