A ceremonial buttock-prodder is a good thing indeed. Also, if a few people work closely, asking each other for a status regularly forces everyone to keep on working. > Another idea is to have regular, short meetings.

Even if we agree to not meet on IRC as there's not much to say, we make that dependent on people with open tasks writing a summary in time for the meeting. Again, this forces everyone to keep on working.
