About the Deathmarch Y2K Forum

greenspun.com : LUSENET : Deathmarch Y2K : Policy

This forum is for Y2K programmers who (a) are in a deathmarch situation - know their chances of making it are about nil, and (b) are willing to share the organizational dysfunctions that have got them into this sorry state. A description of the remediation approach being employed (yearfield expansion, windowing, encapsulation, etc.) is very important.
