I plan on attending tonight’s monthly meeting of the New York City Software Process Improvement Network (SPIN) tonight, where Michael Mah will be speaking on “Extreme Programming (XP) and Productivity Measurement.” For details and directions, see the NYC SPIN website here. Michael is a great speaker, and the topic is an interesting one; among other things, Michael tells me that he’s going to present some data showing that software defect rates are higher in offshore outsourcing projects — as part of his argument that “the world is not flat.”
So if you’re in the neighborhood, drop in and listen to the presentation. I’ll do my best to take notes and write up a blog posting later tonight or tomorrow. Stay tuned…
