It never ceases to amaze me how this simple idea has such a hard time taking root. Seems like it should follow from: 1) we need to be in a better place, 2) where are we? This used to be pretty hard to collect or share metrics but with today's highly integrable tools and your own team portal (you have a team portal don't you?) it can be automated to a large degree. A few scripts tied into your continuous integration platform can gather lots of actionable information about quality, velocity, progress, etc... I really get stone faced when folks start to throw road blocks like - "we can't measure lines of code, we should use function points". Get off my team. :-) Well stated Bill.

Those that survive and are successful are those that embrace what brings the most postive resposes on the most consitent basis. In fact, it *seems* to be incredibly primary and basic instinct, no? - excuse the previouse error i understand what you mean by the process. the process of life. of positive and negatives, of cause and effect, action and response.
