Why do people think one size fits all. It probably works really well for
somethings and not so well for others. The buzzword around here is "rapid
development" which sounds very much like "agile programming". The developer
works right with the client, gets screens up as quick as possible and they
hash out the rest. Saves alot of money but I'm sure everyone can see the
downside. Scope creep gets huge, big denormalized tables etc. But it works
well for small projects. the traditional model to application development
can burn through millions just doing requirements. Our niche is we get the
product out there quickly to the client, but we don't design billing
systems, usually all dss stuff.
