> before, but I have to question this. I t doesn't seem to me that we 
> really do TDD, which is the practice of writing a failing test first, 
> then writing a little code to make it pass, then writing a little more 
> test code, writing a little more app code to make it work, etc. I 
> readily agree that unit tests play a major role in IGSTK, but I don't 
> think TDD as it is understood in the community is really followed.
> - You say Dynamic Testing in 4.b.iv where I think you mean Dynamic 
> Analysis.
> - Section 5 is a great idea, it is not discussed enough in the 
> literature. One concept that is sometimes discussed is how the social 
> organization of the team maps onto design and code acceptance 
> decisions - things like who decides who gets to check what in to CVS?
