I forgot to credit Dick Gabriel (of Lucid fame (or infamy, depending
on your opinion of Lisp and C++)) for the concept of how important
evolution is in software development.
He's penned a number of very interesting papers, available at his

some other issues.
From my own experience in the Mobile Phone business, I know that
Dear Community,
Today is April 1st (well...somewhere, but no longer in my current
