You're very welcome.  I'll also add that, if you haven't yet read Fred
Brooks's classic about software engineering, _The Mythical Man-Month_,
from which the term comes, you have a treat in store for yourself.  It's
both enlightening and entertaining.

(If buying used, it's worth looking for the Anniversary Edition from
1995, as it includes further lessons learned over the 20 years the book
had been in print.)
