If that's all you remember of it, you really need to reread it (and I find myself mildly skeptical that you did in the first place - although it could very well be that it's been long enough you thought those ideas were elsewhere).

Including discussions of approaches to decomposing problems into <10 person chunks and optimizing for minimum dependencies.
