Our first post - planning 2009


Flying to Brindisi this morningTemmy and I flew to join Mats in Brindisi today to map out the 2009 team planning. Thinking of ways to plan the project for next year, I thought this would be the right moment to start jotting down notes about our project, "DELIVER".

It is 1 am in the morning, and I just wrapped up my emails and was ready to go to bed, but wanted to post this first. Just to kick off this project blog.

So... welcome to the blog of the WFP Logistics "DELIVER" team!

Evy, Ekram, Temmy, Diana (and her army of developers), Andrea, Selamawit, Mats and Peter.
