Owen, Surely you don't mean to suggest that having someone with domain knowledge develop a set of requirements and then kick it over the wall to folks who know how to program but have no domain knowledge is a recipe for failure? That having linchpin members of the team with core competencies in both software development -and- the product-relevant knowledge domains is critical to success? Regards, Bill Herrin -- William D.
