Hi John, I don't think XP is at all useful for what we are doing. I think our current process is similar to RUP but a slimmed down version. One thing about RUP that I like is that they have business requirements. Loosely, our process is: Architecture and Requirements Design/prototype Development (testing) Release Support/fixes/upgrades All the while, developing modules simultaneously that will be integrated.. testing is done soon after and while a module is being written. What do you think? I might have over simplified things, but I think it is what our project needs. Somen -----Original Message----- From: rad...@li...

Hi all, Are we using any development process? XP? RUP? From my experience XP doesn't work well with a distributed team like ours and much our requirements is based on fixed standards, and RUP is too heavy for our purpose. I'm thinking we should combine the positive attributes of an agile process like XP w/ RUP, this way we retain the ability to adapt quickly to requirements changes, yet have control over the architecture and overall status of the project. What do y'all think? For those unfamiliar with either process mentioned, here're some links -- XP http://www.extremeprogramming.org http://www.martinfowler.com/articles/newMethodology.html RUP http://www.ibm.com/software/awdtools/rup/ jd _________________________________________________________________ Don't just search.
