[trustable-software] : We've got this all wrong !

[Andrew Banks]

So in effect, you are saying "anyone can do it, whether they're suitably qualified or not" ?

That normal/standard Engineering principles do not apply?

Therein lies so many of the problems with the software industry!

            We have no common agreement event what science we are doing to 
define those measures against which we could certify. We also have another 
major problem with certifcation is how testing methods impact measurment.

            So what do we use if we can to measure this
