2nd Paper Available!

I've placed my conference paper in the Downloads part of the site. You can also find it in the Material part of www.Tick-the-Code.com. The paper is called "Tick-the-Code Inspection: Empirical Evidence (on Effectiveness)" and was prepared for, and presented at Pacific Northwest Software Quality Conference 2007 in Portland, Oregon, USA.

Check it out, it presents among other things a skill gap between what you can achieve with Tick-the-Code and what software professionals really do achieve on their own. The short-term effects are clear to show. All the evidence points to a massive improvement in the number of findings with Tick-the-Code. As the paper mentions, the next thing to prove is to show that the small simplifications have a reducing effect on the amount of errors in the code base.

For that I will need cooperation from several projects. Let me know if you want to be one! I'm sure it will be an interesting experience and I'm betting my livelihood on the fact that at least you will not lose anything in the process. Quite the reverse, you will probably gain a lot in the process.
