That seems like laissez-faire waterfall to me. The problem with the "hard ship date" is that it usually comes with a set of expectations for what is ready on that date: If you need software X on July 1, what happens when software Y becomes more necessary on April 15?
- carsongross 11y agoA hard ship date and flexible requirements is the way to do it: you force the issue and require your (great) developers to immanentize the software. It clarifies the mind and, assuming you didn't start off with absurd goals anyway, you get most of what you want. Most importantly, it gets you to ship.
