Jul 19, 2011 at 16:38 comment added Jon7 @Sean McMillan It's very possible that they say that, but in reality, they just require that a company write up a standards document. They aren't going to check every project at a company with tens of thousands of employees.
Jul 19, 2011 at 16:32 comment added Sean McMillan @Jon7: I thought CMMI 4 and 5 required IT-wide and organization-wide standards.

Jul 15, 2011 at 15:05 comment added Ian @edA-qa, I would hope a nuclear power plan would only have one active version of the control software and very few changes once it had gone live.
Jul 15, 2011 at 5:58 comment added kevin cline I think this process would be fine except that branching in CVS is rather expensive.

Jul 14, 2011 at 17:10 comment added liori Is the "To fix a single bug, first I obtain a clean, new virtual machine. Then I create a branch for that single bug fix, based on another branch described in the Bugzilla report. I install the branch on the machine, set that up." part automated? If not, why?

Jul 14, 2011 at 0:53 comment added PeterL Is this method effective at keeping things organized and reducing regressions and other similar problems? If it's effective and management understands that you won't be able to work quickly, then to me it seems more like a valid management decision that is just hard for most programmers to work with. They're sacrificing speed and flexibility in an attempt to remove as much risk as possible. If it's ineffective or they expect you to produce as fast as an agile team, then there's a serious problem.

Jul 13, 2011 at 17:01 comment added Jon7 @artjom To get a high CMMI level, a company just needs to have 1 team that obtains that level. The rest of the company could be like the wild west and it doesn't effect the CMMI level.

Jul 13, 2011 at 16:10 comment added Job Large companies can afford to be schizophrenic, but not for long, unless they have friends in the government. This would bother me. if this bothers you, then move. Or, just do your 9-5 to keep all of the benefits and just learn to build web sites on the side.

Jul 13, 2011 at 12:32 comment added edA-qa mort-ora-y If the software was the control system for a nuclear power plant this doesn't seem unreasonable. If for a Facebook fan page it seems extremely excessive. Without the context it is hard to say if this unreasonable or not: there are certainly projects for which it isn't, and others where it certainly is.

Jul 13, 2011 at 11:39 comment added user1249 Sounds like the organization has been badly bitten earlier and have grown defenses. Perhaps you should ask about the history of this?
