Managing Product Development » Abandoning vs. Killing Projects

Maybe kill is too strong a word. But if we want to stop a project permanently, I do want to kill it. I don’t want people doing skunk work on it. I don’t want more investigation. I do want it killed. For me, abandon isn’t a strong-enough word.

And, if we can’t sufficiently fund this project now, I want to put the project on the parking lot, or somewhere in the unstaffed work list.
