1.– Good morning, General Computers. How can I help you ?
– Good morning. May I speak to Ms. Jerkins, please? I need to know if she has worked out the project plan yet.
2.– We have to sort out the most talented programmers for this significant project.
– Well, Beth is always keeping track of the programmers’ performances. You can ask for his opinion.
3.– You mean we have to depend on our clients in finding a best solution?
– No, what I meant was that they must play a more active role in defining the software. They need to brief us on their exact needs.

8.– We’d really appreciate it if you can port the software to GNU/Linux environment, as long as that won’t be a big problem for you.
–I understand you concern. But do we have to release it as free software under the GPL license?
9.– We have to reschedule. I think that’s why we’re all here today. Well, do you think it’s better if we develop the software in multiple versions?
– That sounds great. We will win a lot of extra time if we can persuade the
