Suggested Milestones

Lions this is the suggested modus operandi we sent earlier for the assignment. I've put tentative dates as well. Please advise if we're ok with the strategy as well as the dates.

Skeleton of the write up from each team i.e. in bullet form or in short prose ….what info does the team need from Coke to fulfill their section. – 29 May 2011
Luisa & Shumi to assess info requirements and to try to fill in the gaps – 5 June 2011
Interview/Tour of plant with Coke (Hopefully by 12 June 2011)
Draft 1 By 19 June 2011
Quality Check (26 June 2011)
Final Draft (3 July 2011)

Ok Hove. Are we ok with the dates? I have provided deadlines every week? Can we meet these dealines? --Shumimlingo 16:18, 22 May 2011 (UTC)

I think the dates are fine. We do not want history to repeat itself again where wedo things at the last minute again.

If we set the deadlines too tight the quality is affected too. Remember this is a 50 page write up

The deadline on the 29th is largely a brainstorming one. Calvin, you have already done a great job in the summary you made. You have already begun asking the right questions. What we are asking the various teams to do is the come up with a skeleton of what is required. Its really asking everyone to think their section through and identify the key area of what is required. Once we have this it can act as our guide. Will this take more than a week? If we move to 5 June it means every other deadline moves by a week. Is this the consensus?

Okay I understand. Lets proceed with these dates.

CalvinM (talk)‎

We will need to formulate questions, if any for our assigned mentor for clarification etc. We have covered the Coke stuff in the timelines but I'm not so sure about the academic. Shall we plan this for after the 29th.

CalvinM (talk)‎

I thi nk these deadlines are a little tight especially the 29th May one. Suggest 5 June as the first one

Lets move on Shumi.I think its well with the rest of the guys. What do you think?

Hove (talk)‎

I'm ok with it Hove. I factored in that that the project is due a couple of days away from the 2nd elective assignment. I'm sure finance is due around the same time. If we get this out of the way earlier it will really help relieve the pressure at the end.
