While at BSDcon in San Francisco, I heard John Mashey's two keynote
speeches "Small is Beautiful" and "Software Army on the March".

A lot of the material was from talks given twenty years ago, with
additional interesting information gleaned from Brooks "Mythical Man Month".
Most of it is still true today, much to the software industry's chagrin.

I managed to talk Mashey and USENIX to put the slides up on the web
at:

http://www.usenix.org/publications/library/proceedings/bsdcon02/mashey_small/

and

http://www.usenix.org/publications/library/proceedings/bsdcon02/mashey_army/

Even without the stirring words of John, they are interesting bits of history
to see.  For those of you who like quotes in your signature lines, there
are some classics.
