Great. It would be better if the summaries were even shorter though, and had more links.
For example:
"Developers using the Lean Software Development model compare the writing of software to a manufacturing process where project requirements are considered inventory. The focus should be on the code as it is the real inventory. Like all inventory there is a cost to carrying code. Competitive advantage can be achieved by strategically deleting code and focusing on profitable features."
has a lot of cruft and could be summarized like this:
"Lean software says code is inventory - and carrying inventory costs money."
That way you get the main idea and you can click for more.
- MichaelApproved 15y agoI like how you're thinking but in this case Lean software generally considers features inventory. The author of the source article is suggesting it should be inventory instead. The transition is needed from the general perception to what is being proposed.
- petervandijck 15y agoSo perhaps: "Lean software says features are inventory and carrying inventory costs money, but perhaps code itself should be considered inventory instead."
