Decisions

[What came up that needed to be addressed? Did you run into a problem or roadblock? How did you solve it? What important decisions did you make this week that impacted your project? What were the key tasks you performed this week? Do not state that there were no key decisions this week.]

The decision was made to launch on schedule. This was based upon the Stakeholders request to launch early. It was a consences of the team to launch on the planned schedule. Forty-eight hours was not going to be that big of a difference.
