>If anyone has worked in a company that has successfully measured developer productivity I'd be interested in how they did the measurement.
I don't know how successful it was, but years ago we used function points. Rather than counting lines of code, we would count new functionality (or modified function). In OOP, I think it would be the equivalent of delivering a new object and/or method. But, how do you measure the productivity of maintenance programmers? - Too busy driving to stop for gas! ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with the message: GET IBM-MAIN INFO Search the archives at http://bama.ua.edu/archives/ibm-main.html
