Thanks for the clarification. I probably should have put a little context
around my question so that it didn't seem too cheeky.
I'm trying to inject some XP into my own situation where I have one team
in Vietnam and another in the US. We're not going to be able to implement
the textbook methodology but even a variant (like yours but different)
will be a lot better than what we have now.
Thanks for the insight.
