Jeff,

Let me rephrase that - do you know a field, or a particular area within a
field, that does NOT use software these days? Designing such software is
within the field's content, though programming it may well be outside. This
makes for excellent inter-disciplinary collaboration in any software
development - which can be accomplished within a diverse co-working group.


Cheers,
Maria Droujkova
