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.
