Simple Questions Taking Long Answers

So my client came back with some changes that they wanted to make after testing the deliverables. Fair enough. So I sent them a couple of clarifying questions - things like sending me samples and confirming the changes to be made. Well, it has been more than a week and still no sign of a reply. That's frustrating and it is one of the worst email etiquette I have seen.

Like at least just tell me that you're working on it. On the positive side, i've already billed and been paid for this so they can take their time and it will just delay the end-date. So what's a better way to handle this?

I think the big problem is that it requires 8 or 9 project members to come to a consensus before anything moves ahead. It would be better if there was a project owner who can answer questions fast rather than requiring everyone's input to be heard. Going forward, I'll progress regular meetings so that we can at least discuss issues maybe weekly for half an hour instead of just waiting and waiting to hear back.

Coding's quite fun when you're in the mood for it. Definitely keeps you occupied albeit a little sedentary. Don't have a standing desk in this space. The best option is the kitchen counter top.
