Eh, we've all done "rapid iterative design"... it usually goes something like this...

10:34am: "I need the logo to be flaming instead of waving, and it has to be done by 11:00am" 10:58am: "Scratch that, the logo has to fade in and out and it MUST be implemented by 11:15am" 11:20am: "Please change the site's layout from three fluid columns to two static by noon's product demo" 12:22pm: "The demo went well, but they want the logo to be a subtle background image, and the layout has to have a header, footer, sidebar and the original three fluid columns. The next demo is at 1:30 so it has to be done by then."

By the way, "tapid iterative development" usually ends in one or more suicides, loss of staff to the local Wal-Mart or any version of Windows Vista.

P.S. on a very side note, what is "test-driven design" and "rapid iterative development" ?

I think that means "We don't need no stinkin' requirements."
