Fred's Session: re-writing and edition the wants and needs.

Listing for each of our significant briefs:
. the Skills we would use / develop
. the Contexts of the design work (educational, publication, etc) 
. the Content of the brief intended
. the Products proposed/ possible.

This at first seemed a bit as a given, but the more you write and process each brief you start to add things and realise what is possible and why I liked a certain brief more.
