4) Comments
The Four Horsemen: Reil, Sinn, Maes, McCauley
During the project documentation and creation phase, we allowed ourselves to be business-like with
a small amount of enjoyment. Creating our own project has an inherent feeling of well-being. Our
own whiteboard for collaborative mind mapping and a quieter environment is essential to getting
some actual work done.
