You claim that "iFACTS has failed as an engineering results" without explaining what the failure is. What are the criteria for success that iFACTS does not meet, in your opinion? And what are your sources of information? Also you say "iFACTS was ending with a lot of deficiencies" but I have no idea what you are talking about because I am not an insider. Please provide some details about your claims (links to published reports would be excellent); explain why you think the "deficiencies" are attributable to the development process or tools; propose a solution. That would really contribute to the knowledge and wisdom of your fellow software engineers. Right now, I for one am totally in the dark and I have no idea what conclusion I'm supposed to draw from your post. -- Ludovic Brenta.
