Hi all, I just read the book Extreme Programming by Kent Beck (I just love him), and it struck me how close that is to open source development. Everything is tested all the time since so many people are using it, all development is used in very short iterations since nobody has very much time to work on it anyway, integrations are done often since everybody works against the same cvs server, redesigning and rewriting often since we don't like to look at bad code, and most importantly, everything is developed in order of importance (at least to somebody) since everybody just implements the things that means most to him or her. I hope we can use something as close to this as possible for the Yact/Qb pair, just implementing the features we want the most, letting the need from Yact pull the development of Qb. I'm not just suffering from the "when your latest tool is a hammer, all problems look like nails" syndrome, am I? /Basic |
