adaptations Explanation: another option; probably wouldn't hurt to lose the repetitive 'development' -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 3 hrs (2009-12-18 05:49:06 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- custom might suggest 'new, from scratch' adaptation means it's based on existing products that will be adapted to the cleint's requiremnts (which needs to happen anyway, given the myriad standards in railways across the world - from gauge to safety equipment) |
