On the contrary, the XP people grasp at the low-hanging fruit precisely because they do not trust their knowledge of the endgame requirements. They know that the requirements *will* change during development, drastically and continuously, so they implement the bare minimum necessary to meet their short-term goals (i.e. two- to three-weeks) and give the customer a chance to have some hands-on experience and (possibly) rewrite the requirements after each iteration. Wild stuff. All the best, David -- David Megginson david@m... http://www.megginson.com/
