I'm not sure that can be completely avoided. "The Cathedral and the Bazaar" doesn't replace "The Mythical Man Month", it supplements it. As I recall, development has an exponential communications cost as the group size increases, while testing is highly parallelizable. In other words, I think we need a small "danger team" to go in and put on the last few bits of spit and polish we need for release. -- Raul -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
