Funny, I just made this "executive decision" myself. With limited resources
for development and a number of "bouts of illness" over the past several
months, I found that while I could meet my contractual obligations, I had to
use my grace period(s). BUT, when the client sees that we're delivering a
fully-completed PUBLIC interface on time and within budget, they can usually
relax enough to allow us to finish the "backend" work that allows them to
manage their own site. Plus, we always offer to make content changes as
needed (within REASON, of course) until such time as they are able to do it
themselves. We offer this "minor content management" for them at no charge
until the backend is really ready for prime time.
Not the best way to work, but when you don't have all sorts of developers to
throw at something, and life still throws you some curves, it *does* make it
easier.

Subject: OT: Deadline Developing
As the only Web Developer at my agency, I have all of the say so in what I
do and when. In order to meet the current deadline of having a new *and
improved with fusebox* site available to the public, I have dropped the
admin/content management piece of the site until after the launch. This
seems to be a very productive method for me, having been maintaining the
current site (updates and content) for the past six months anyway. I am
curious to find out how others meet their deadlines when push comes to
shove.
Curiously awaiting,
Chris Walsh
