Yes, I believe there is. The new CMM will include negative numbers,
to account for the practices of several large software houses,
particularly those in the personal computer market. The holdup, it
is rumored, is just _how many_ negative numbers to use. Given the
state of practice in many American programming shops, the current
value is at -18, but the final decision is on hold -- there appears
to be some discussion about adding a few more values below that now
that the findings from the Microsoft survey have come in.
