What is the difference between a
WIP
and a
UFO
? When does the
WIP
become a
UFO
?

A WIP is a project that you are still working on
A UFO is a project that is put away, and not being worked on
A WIP becomes a UFO when you are no longer working on it...

Sometimes the UFOs and the WIPs are actually PIGS (Projects in Grocery Sacks) lol
