Ralf and John. I don't either of you are ranting but providing good feedback that aligns with my own thinking about tasks. I favor smaller tasks that can be completed quickly rather than huge tasks that take multiple mappers to complete.
One thing that I think we are moving towards is a set of guidelines for TM PMs. This will standardize a lot of language and help keep tasks manageable. I'm working on a draft that I'll share with the HOT and TM PM lists once it's ready to share. Thanks as always for your time.
