The prospect, which I think I can now safely regard as a real client,
said his figures were his best guess and that we can fine tune them
after I'm more familiar with the program. We're doing a half-day (paid)
training tomorrow.

Now, while I am aware that I do not want to get bogged down in process
documents, I might want to prepare some document that will govern the
work I do, such as an information plan. Btw, what's the difference
between an information plan and a documentation plan? I've been gleaning
what I can online about Hackos' methodology, but without having a copy
of the book, it's a little hazy to me.

I've found a few sample information plans online, but if anyone has a
template in Word for one that would be suitable for a lone writer at a
startup -- in other words, a "stripped down" version that streamlines
things -- I'd love to have a copy.

Thanks for all your help!
