Frankly, I think this whole approach of "fixing the process" is wrongheaded. We're in this mess because our *tools* are broken, not our *process*. Lots of other projects, many larger than Boost, work perfectly well with the same or similar processes because their tools work better.
I'm 100% convinced the tools are broken. I'm only about 50% convinced that the process isn't (or is, if you prefer) broken.
And let me add, on that basis I will spend any energy I have on fixing tools and resist any major changes of process until we have experience with the fixed tools. Changes lead to churn and we should minimize that. -- Dave Abrahams Boost Consulting http://www.boost-consulting.com The Astoria Seminar ==> http://www.astoriaseminar.com
