How is are team doing?

One of my main concerns is render time because me and some of my team mates are using mental ray with allot of reflections like Steve (team leader) is creating a futuristic city with allot glass. I'm also concerned that i have not seen many updates from some meet member on there 3d environments. But over all i think we have a balanced and well organised team that is working well together and getting all are work in on the deadlines are team leader is setting. I think it works well because we all have someone we are good e.g Steve 3ds max, me 3ds max, Wayne texturing, Jordan editing and Marcus is very good at scripting and sound editing
