I am referring to section 2.3.1 of the strategy doc.

But hard to point someone to the right place without decent numbering.

Are you American? I tend to find tastes in tech differ across the pond. An American literally sent me a link to a google doc the other week - I couldn't believe anyone would send a final professional doc in anything other than Word - you can't even get proper section numbers without a poor plugin....

I had fibre to the curb in QLD and fibre to the node in Sydney. Was the fastest broadband I've ever experienced!

Everytime an engineer tries to push slack on a consultant all they see is a new interface, shit loads of noise, gifs etc (cultural issue rather than tech stack obviously) and no real extra benefit vs the cost of learning something new when what you have today ticks all the boxes.

I also use both as I'm a partner on the engineering side of the business but also run a large consulting pod - I really don't care which one anyone uses. I don't personally see Slack being better 'enough' to justify the effort of switching for those that are already on teams.

Just avoid comments about peoples personal appearance all together. Maybe somebody doesn't want to be told they're short or dark or whatever.

and here is one of two reviews (the other one isn't so good either).

"This is the worst book I have ever read. Not organized, inconsistent tabs, incorrect spelling, punctuation, and grammar.

Many of the points on tax sales are not fully explained and the reader is left with gaping holes in understanding the tax sale process. Some of the points are incorrect on how the tax sale process works.

I would not recommend this kindle to anyone, especially someone someone looking for guidance on the tax sale process. Perhaps this kindle could be useful in an English class as an example of what not to do."
