actually i only elaborated on the most recent problem project i have
seen, i have seen it tried in several projects. but i have come to
understand that what i saw was bad implementations of this system.
But i think where i was not thinking totally clearly about this for my
own objectsions is that i belive a task started from scratch should be
partitioned into work packets and the work packet largely belongs to a
small group or a person until its through unit test when its integrated
into the larger system it becomes community property and i agree our
folks treat that pretty much like the gnat team. We don't think twice
about fixing whatever during integration depending only on our ability
to get it done right as richard claims. I guess what i am saying is i
think i understand your position better now and as you say i don't
think we differ by much if anything on this issue robert at least for
my own team, but i have seen a lot of teams who are NOT capable of this
ACT and trying to force it on them is a recipe for disaster. You need
assess your people as a manager before deciding on how this is going to
work before starting, and not just your people the managers are
probably more critical to the success of this than the people.
