      Let Suity check that. He may want to descope that and put it at risk.

          Of course the other option is to mumble something like, 'Agile, iterative, Scrum', send your last invoice and run.

            No, stay and send some more invoices; only run just before the tulip hits the fan.

                FTFY but if you are going to use agile terminology you could have had a better joke.

                  Risks have "mitigation", not solutions, in project terms. Only someone with experience would know this of course.

                    But when you are paying for experts you are paying them for solutions not mitigations. MF believes himself to be expert so he believes he delivers solutions.

                    Although based on the work related tulip he posts in general he doesn't seem to be one for mitigating risks that offer an option to twat the person responsible.
