You might be right, but even if it did take 58 days of planning and 2
days of coding, we would have solved one problem, and caused another and
that's ok. The next problem would be very clear: "how can we reduce the
time it takes to do design?" I don't think that will be the case, this
tool isn't coming from revolutionary techniques, it just puts them all
together into a single application that can be track the application
through it's life cycle.
Plus, I'm not only going for speed, I'm attempting to improve quality by
having programmers deliver what the client wants. Being skeptical is
perfectly fine, this is something that has been perceived as impossible
for about 50 years.
