Teams' expectations of solution completeness

2007-01-26 12:06 | Posted by prechelt | Permanent Link | Live Announcement

At about 10:00 I went around and asked each team to prepare a rough estimate of what fraction (in percent) of the functional requirements they expect to implement until the end of the contest (15:00), separately by requirements category.

Here are the results:

team	MUST	SHOULD	MAY
1 (EdG/Optaros, Perl)	70	80	65
2 (plusW, Perl)	80	50	33
3 (abaXX, Java)	100	70	50
4 (Accenture, Java)	50	10	10
5 (RevSys, Perl)	100	100	75
6 (Oxid, PHP)	80	80	50
7 (Globalpark, PHP)	100	20	5
8 (Zend, PHP)	70	20	10
9 (Innoopract, Java)	20	10	10

Fairly different amounts of confidence...

(Yes, the requirements specification document will be put online some time soon)

Tobias, like most perl users, looks pretty confused. There is a large difference between talking and delivering. Perl guys always like to *talk* about how productive their language is, but that is just a mantra. Look at the results; an incomplete solution delivered 2 minutes before the time was over. They had lots of "reasons" why it didn't work out though!

Java isn't a very productive language at all, but it sounds like even they smoked the perl guys. Wonder why that is?

Eh, obviously, virtual machines are not available any more.

And I really wanted to see finished websites.

perhaps they only know where to click in eclipse...or they never built a backend?

they're probably still debating on how to best integrate with CORBA and connect with the SAP Netweaver platform </rant>

Er, apologies for typo. I meant, until when?

Will team solutions continue to work for public testing, after 15:00 this day, and if so - until then?

The RevSys dudes know how to deliver (and Accenture most definitely doesn't) - Go Perl! Go Perl! :)
