It would be a good thing if the software being developed for the Space Shuttle or for life-support equipment. (And, actually, those industries do have some of these qualities.) It would probably kill the custom software industry. That might not be such a bad thing. If 80% of the industry is producing failing products, that a lot of bazillions of dollars just wasted. Admittedly, wasted on data hos, but wasted. Perhaps a compromise. Public companies, governments, and those who want it use licensed practitioners; folks who want to DIY could. You want to sell into the F500, you need to get your products badged, probably with certified practitioners, processes and testing. Who knows? HIPAA and SOX made some consultants a lot of money. -- Ted Roche Ted Roche & Associates, LLC http://www.tedroche.com _______________________________________________ Post Messages to: ProFox@leafe.com Subscription Maintenance: http://leafe.com/mailman/listinfo/profox OT-free version of this list: http://leafe.com/mailman/listinfo/profoxtech Searchable Archive: http://leafe.com/archives/search/profox This message: http://leafe.com/archives/byMID/profox/[EMAIL PROTECTED] ** All postings, unless explicitly stated otherwise, are the opinions of the author, and do not constitute legal or medical advice.
