I read groklaw a lot. That's a legal blog. Anyway, one thing that I just
read says that MS is developing the next Windows release, called Windows
7. And that there are 1,000 developers on the project, with 1,000
testers. I don't know if that is correct or not. But it got me curious.
I wonder how many developers there are for the "core" portions of z/OS,
such as the BCP (kernel), DFSMS, JES[23], and other portions. Anybody
have a ball park figure?
I'm preety sure, that some people in IBM know <vbg>
But seriously, I heard about 20 000 (yes!) - including all system
components, designers, coders, testers, etc. However I cannot verify it
or even assess it as to much or not.
