About this place
Hi there!My name is Dmitri Maximov.
I work for Xtensive LLC as a DataObjects.Net Project Manager. If you would like to know more about this fantastic ORM framework, you'd better visit its website.
This is my personal space where I can speculate about modern software technologies and make experiments. The last one is the NetMonitor project, I've started it to get more familiar with MVVM concept and WPF.
"We are fond of our products but almost nobody else is."
ReplyDeleteWho are "we" and "everyone else"? Xtensive vs. its customers? Or management vs developers?
If you're talking about the former, then I completely disagree. 4.0 is something that I, as a customer, anticipate more than any other tool/technology we use. It is an incredible product.

Agile development is more about small iterations vs. waterfall approach than it is about democracy vs. tyranny. The stakeholders (your customers and high-level team) prioritize a large backlog of outstanding tasks, pick which ones you will complete for the next 2-6 weeks, and design/develop/test the selected items.
I don't see a difference in "democracy" between agile and waterfall approach. The triage is still done by higher-level people. The developers should still implement tasks using patterns that they've been taught.
Hello Anonymous.
ReplyDeleteIn my opinion, the post was not about agile vs. waterfall approach at all.
It is mostly about the attitude to the development team & process from company's owners. I mean the right to meddle in any part of the product at any stage of the process and to do whatever they like.
Thanks for this post. It proves very informative for me. Great post to read. Keep blogging.
