Tops and Flops
Doc review is at its best when the team is engaged
Effective doc review can only be achieved with the right tools
Doc review requires a clear process
Open vs. Structured Collaboration
Reviewing docs requires a structured workflow and defined roles
Open collaboration works better for crowd sourcing than project mgt
Version Madness
Collaboration fails when people work on separate medium
Reviewing time is reduced by working on a central document
