New You know what took forever?
We had great up front specs - good mockups - solid description of interaction models - some of the most complete specs I've ever seen.

However, its take so long to get the "feel" right. The little bits of timing and transitions you can't really capture in a paper specification (or even prototype).

Learned a lot there

New That also added significant time
there is some astonishingly elaborate code to make the back button in IE work the way people expect it to (most of the time). That was a month all by itself.
