Subj : Re: Software Job Market Myths To : comp.programming,comp.software-eng From : shelley Date : Tue Jul 05 2005 09:55 am "One person - one project mode" is probably one of the most effective techniques for making programmers more effective. My guess is that task switching probably wastes more resource than anything else, developers and managers, yet seems to be the default for many software people. With just one project you can *concentrate* on the work in hand. Hopefully the lean s/w development school will have some impact on reducing multi project working. .
