I've been retired for 16 years, but before that I was personally responsible
for the whole of the software development and maintenance cycle on a
17-mainframe system distributed over five sites with dual-redundant HDLC links,
scores of thousands of real-time inputs, 10 programming languages, user
construction of complex engineering displays, ... (I needen't go on).
I don't impugn the competence of anybody in particular, but it cannot be denied
that any software development system must be broken if it allows the release of
fiascos like the first few versions of KDE-4, and in particular KMail-2, which
destroyed e-mail collections around the world and drove many previously happy
users to find other ways of managing e-mail.
If anything remotely resembling such humiliations as those had happened on my
watch, the consequences for all those involved - and for electricity supply in
the UK - would have been dire.
I don't wish to blame any one person, as I said, but some quality control is
needed, together with a quality management system (see ISO-9001).
