Scope is not expressed in time; it is expressed in
terms of functionality. You are referring to time

Sharon is absolutely right. Sometimes the scope is
"you've got 3 months" to produce and deliver this manual. Sometimes the
scope becomes what you've been able to do in the time given with the
resources given. I've had to scope doc projects by saying "if you need it
by X, and you can only pay Y, then what you're getting is Z".
