Let us play a relay race of PM Terms.

Rules:
>You start from the last letter of the term posted previously.
>In case, more than one terms posted with same letters (concurrently posted), you start with the latest term.
>Only Project Management Terms in this relay.
>A term may include multiple words.
>Acronyms are fine. please include the expansion before the description.
>Your term needs to be followed by a short description of the term.
>No successive posting of term by the same member. The below one is fine.
member A: --------L
member B: L----- --- ----D
member A: D---- ------ ----
> If you don't get a term starting from a particular letter(last letter of previous term), feel free to start from the next letter. e.g. previous term - buzz, if you don't get a term starting with 'z', you may start with 'a'. (Hoping this rule will be rarely used.:)
>End date of game: No end date. Till the game goes on.

Vasi,

Markus,

we posted at the same time so as per the rule "In case, more than one terms posted with same letters (concurrently posted), you start with the latest term. "
K is the next word
