Re: Open Source Project Survey

Keith - I've been chasing your namesake to publish a paper on InfoQ for
4yrs so I assume not. Perhaps you can take on his mantle. Here is an offer
as you write your thesis if you happen to produce an article or two for
normal (agile) humans I can find a forum for it on InfoQ.com. We don't pay
well in $$, but do pay in notoriety.

(If anyone not named Keith wishes to step into the breach with a technical
paper showing the benefit (or pain) of TDD, UnitTests, .... - I will find a
home for it.

Cheers
Mark
