Tangential: I just read the wikipedia page on this [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cover_Oregon#Website_failure https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cover_Oregon#Website_failure]. Is there any more in-depth information available about what went wrong on this project (or others like it)? I'd love to read a post-mortem, or some technical explanation of what goes wrong on projects like these. Does the code just not work? Is everyone purposely just billing time and milking the contract, or does it start with competent analysts and developers trying to deliver working software? And if so, how does it get from there to here? Is this a typical gov contract thing that I've just not seen by working private sector? If anyone has any resources on this sort of thing, I'd love to see them.
