Craftmanship

Events, Methodology, by Maple Sense.

After Ivar was done with his keynote Robert C Martin ‘Uncle Bob’ took Ivar’s talk to the next level. He started his career in ‘69 as a programmer. His experience was that every decade provided new technologies and methodologies. But still developers couldn’t deliver on time and managers keep raising the bar. Concluding he summoned upon the professionalism of all attandees. With means that you don’t communicate what the manager wants to hear but that you have to tell him the truth although if that means you have to disappoint him. More on that later on.

By the way, use the comment or contact me directly if you want more info on these toppics.

  1. In his talk Uncle Bob mentioned the Manifesto for Software Craftsmanship. How do you think about the manifesto? Would you sign the manifesto?
