To prove what a schedule fixated, delivery oriented chap I am I would just like to say that the end date I set myself for this re-design was …
The 31st of October, 2002. I may have to review my estimating techniques somewhat. Until then if I promise to do something, it will be done, just don’t assume it will be soon.
Compared to my experience with this strange breed called programmers your estimation skills seem excellent Andy. These days I simply triple any estimate and then run a sweep with the rest of my team to see who can ‘guess’ the date. Tierd and bitter web manager!
