A look over the shoulder of an XP programmer (auf deutsch)
Seen in news:de.alt.sysadmin.recovery : http://www.frankwestphal.de/XPueberdieSchultergeschaut.html The poster thought it was satire; I'm not so sure. Anyway, if you understand German (or trust Babelfish), have a look at it. Enjoy! Cheers, Philip -- Philip Newton [EMAIL PROTECTED] All opinions are my own, not my employer's.

From: Robin Houston [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Do you think it's possible to take XP too far? *Too* extreme? Sure it is. Having two people look at/develop a piece of code is better than one. Therefore having three people must be even better. But why stop there - why not four, five, six . . . Better yet - design/develop by committee!
