Some are getting the idea that I am a depraved undisciplined
malcontent and that I work for an extermely backwards client
who is about to go under. I may be depraved, but I assure you
not undisciplined in my field. My client is one of the leaders
in the field - I choose not to reveal the corp's name but it
is one of the top three defense orgs...

SEI may have some very good ideas about how to develop software.
Unfortunately, these ideas are implemented my morons who do
not know how to develop the software they are writing development
policies for. As I stated, ny work at the moment is to write
a safety critical device which needs about 15,000 lines of code
to run on a 68332...an easy job if it weren't for doing things
"by the process" - which requires us to do things like vax based
unit testing instead of target based, using tools to measure and
record metrics which nobody uses, maintaining our code and all the
related files in an archaic word processing system, using a pretty
printer which makes my beautifully organized source code into 
an absolute mess...etc, etc, etc...  our company is having a hard
time keeping software engineers because of the "process" they
have to work under...
