Hi all,
Stefan and I are writing an 10'000 character long article for the
German Computerwoche,
which is a bit like the yellow press of computer magazines, but surprisingly
all IT-strategists (whatever that means) and managers in Germany do read
it every week.
This is a no-code article, only bla bla and economic data, if possible
in man years and in US-Dollars/Euros. I know the qns below mean
nothing about the quality of Ruby, etc. but I think for the acceptance
of Ruby we can gain a majof victory, if we produce the right kind of
business talk.
- Can we estimate how many man years of work have gone into Ruby?
- Can we quote sb. mentionning a concrete project, saying .. doing it
in Ruby was much faster than doing it in Java/C#?
- Any other good ideas?
Thank you,
-Armin
