Schubert's Productivity
In the ongoing debate of metrics and “productivity”, Michael James posted an excellent article on the ScrumDevelopment email list. Using Schuberts unfinished symphony the backdrop, he plays out a thought experiment on what would happen if we treated an orchestra like a software team:
“All twelve violins were playing identical notes. This seems unnecessary duplication and the staff of this section should be drastically cut. If a large volume of sound is really required, this could be obtained through the use of an amplifier.” Link
Funny and educational stuff.
