I can't wait 'till you see the unit tests. :) Ravi, it's a relief to read your comments that should definitely resonate with all Mifos developers. We feel your pain. In fact, I recall a slide from a presentation on Mifos that put a metric on that pain. And I couldn't agree more with Keith and Van's latest comments urging clear intentions when writing identifier names, following patterns, etc. Self-documenting and intention-revealing code is critical to: * scaling our development effort (thank you Rob Short) * having an agile and adaptable codebase * having a maintainable codebase Better code means better Mifos, means helping people out of poverty more effectively! -- Adam Monsen ------------------------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by: Microsoft Defy all challenges.
