Re: Code Collaborator from SmartBear Software

[Jaap Keuter <jaap.keuter () xs4all nl>]

Hi,

I quickly read through the website to get a feel for the product and  
the process it tries to support. From what I see it's very nice tool  
to do a CMM level 2 development, even distinuted geographically.
Still I don't think it solves a real problem in Wireshark development.  
We're not looking for review sessions, code metrics, discussion/defact  
tracking. We're looking for eyeballs, connected to brains spending  
cycles processing all "The good, the bad and the ugly code". Since  
these have to be sourced from a limited supply, even this tool won't  
speed things up. Mind you, there are good things in this tool, which  
we cover in a different way, like Bugzilla and this mailinglist.

Ok, I'm back to sleep now :)

Thanks,
Jaap
