I think the main risk is that the requirements are unknown while the deadline is fixed. That seems like a recipe for disaster!

I’m not entirely sure, but I think the risk might be related to the unknown requirements. That sounds familiar from practice questions.

The key here is understanding the relationship between the public community, the requirements, and the fixed budget and timeline. Gotta be strategic in my approach.

I'm going with D too. Trying to build an app without knowing what the users want, while being on a tight deadline? That's like trying to bake a cake without a recipe - it's not gonna end well!

D is the way to go here. Unknown requirements and a set release date? That's a disaster waiting to happen. Might as well just roll the dice and see what comes up!

Hmm, I think the correct answer is D. If the requirements are unknown and the release date has been set, that's definitely a huge risk. That's like trying to hit a moving target while blindfolded!
