Cybersmith: How Software Is Built
Thanks to a post by Adobe's Dave McAllister, I've found the How Software Is Built site. The articles are long and often juicy, consisting of lengthy interviews that are fully-included in the site's RSS feeds. I subscribed immediately. Subscribe now and you'll get copies of all posts since May 4, 2007.
There is material on development models and some digging into when and how open-source development models fit, especially in commercial efforts and in creating reliable software. The blog is a great source of thoughtful analysis of topics that we may have unjustified automatic opinions about. It is a great way for the budding cybersmith to gain greater perspective on the global factors that are important in how and whether software gets build and delivered.
I'm also a Michael Howard fan boy, so it was cool to see his photograph along with a great interview on the Microsoft Security Development Lifecycle work. Everybody seems so young to me these days. All the youngsters with more exciting developments and experiences ahead of them. The future is looking to be in good hands.
