When they got the permie in who's taking over the project I'd been
working on, we spent a fair amount of time doing the PP thing. And it
was great. A *fantastic* way of getting information shared and passed
on for what was basically a decently engineered but atrociously
documented project. By the time I left, James knew his way around the
system and was confident he could extend it as required. And I was
confident he was right about that. (Did my ego good to know I'd
written something without sanity checking that was relatively easy for
someone to pick up quickly too...)
