		<description><![CDATA[For a current project investigating the use of collaboration tools on GSD (global software development) projects, I&#8217;ve been assessing the impact of videoconferencing on development team activities. On the plus side is the great potential benefit of visual feedback. On the negative side, I&#8217;ve realized, is the great potential to inadvertently offend never-met teammates of [...]]]></description>

Clearly there had been problems in the past with sprinkler malfunctions, and after one or more incidents of &#8216;defect correction&#8217; (fixing the sprinkler malfunctions), [...]]]></description>
