[HACKERS] COCOMO Indians
Hi, Pgsql-hackers. We would like to obtain your opinion on these two questions: 1) We wanna append possibilities into Postgres engine, and wanna get top estimation for size of code, cost and time of implementation. 1.1) We divide possibilities to elementary features, find analogues in already written code, and suppose e.g., that quantity of lines for 'create timer' will be similar to 'create function', and that implementation for 'create timer' is easy than implementation of 'create function' (because it already has prototype in 'create function', and coping source code is possiblle) 1.2) We calculate cost and time by COCOMO http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cocomo How relevant is this estimation ? 2) We are captivated by price of Indians, we listened much about low quality of code, written by Indians, we are fearing, that American company will resale implementation to Indian subcontractor (i.e. real developers will be Indians anyway). What requirements should satisfy code, written by Indians, to be in next version of Postgres ?

Hi, Jonah and Ibrar. This is the wrong place to do it. Seggest other place. 2) We are captivated by price of Indians, we listened much about low quality of code, written by Indians, we are fearing, that American company will resale implementation to Indian subcontractor (i.e. real developers will be Indians anyway). Did you really just say that? My letters are perlustrated by bank security command (team). it seems that you haven't got the hint yet Already done. Current results is the following: A1) cost in US is above cost in India in 3 time (i.e. coefficient is 3), coefficient was obtained as expert estimation independently (of digits below). A2) avarage in India is nearly 50 000$, avarage in US is nearly 150 000$. Much dispersion (range) of prices (dispersion for India is bigger). Both country informs, that cost in Europe is above cost in US. A3) Contributor from Pg informs, that cost is 50 000 euro, i.e. 75 000$. We interpret in following way: B1) We can pack into 75 000, if we will seach developers enough long time, we can get developers just now, if we pay twice (i.e. 75*2=150) B2) therefore cost in India is increased twice, i.e. actual cost is 25 000 B3) We have no reasons to believe US, probably real developers will be in India Do we really need this kind of discussion here? Bosses do not like dispersion. Besides this, 50 000 itself seems very much for India to be math expectation.

Hi, Robert. This is the wrong place to do it. Seggest other place. This topic is off-topic for the mailing list. I feel strong desire to recall you, that Pg has no concreate instructions till now how to hire for appending features into engine. And of cource, there is no usefull recomendations to orientate on market. P.S. I agree to continue discussion about features of site only in other mailing list, if you just want.

Re: [HACKERS] COCOMO Indians
Hello Dmitry, you are really on wrong place. You have to accept, so your proposals are not interesting for this community. Because PostgreSQL is under BSD licence, you can do own project based on PostgreSQL source code. There you can test all your ideas - it should not be first similar project - but you cannot expect so you will get some active programmers here - first you have to show some real product, real project, and then you can expect some interest. Without it, nobody will be respect you and accept your proposals. Regards Pavel Stehule 2008/12/11 Dmitry Turin [EMAIL PROTECTED]: Hi, Jonah and Ibrar. This is the wrong place to do it.

Hi, Pavel. you have to show some real product, real project Money will not be confirmed, until size of it will be known. No IT solution can be confirmed or not, but business solution. Budget for implementation is part of business solution.

I though some different, First you have to show real code, some working prototype. And if you really would to collaborate with as, you have to accept so: develop process is based on smaller proposals, every proposal is discussed and have to be accepted. If nobody discuss with you, it's signal, so there isn't real interest. So you have to open own open source project.

If you don't like my proposals, you can imply other proposals behind. I assume, PMs can be not here (in list), as well as (nominal) PMs here can not use methods and work at random. Let's leave my SQL5, and come back to topic: 1.1) We divide possibilities to elementary features, find analogues in already written code, and suppose e.g., that quantity of lines for 'create timer' will be similar to 'create function', and that implementation for 'create timer' is easy than implementation of 'create function' (because it already has prototype in 'create function', and coping source code is possiblle) 1.2) We calculate cost and time by COCOMO http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cocomo How relevant is this estimation ?
