Introduction
|
|
.PP
|
|
The Computer Systems Research Group (\c
|
|
.SM CSRG )
|
|
has always been a small group of software developers.
|
|
This resource limitation requires careful software-engineering management
|
|
as well as careful coordination of both
|
|
.SM CSRG
|
|
personnel and the members of the general community who
|
|
contribute to the development of the system.
|
|
.PP
|
|
Releases from Berkeley alternate between those that introduce
|
|
major new facilities and those that provide bug fixes and efficiency
|
|
improvements.
|
|
This alternation allows timely releases, while providing for refinement,
|
|
tuning, and correction of the new facilities.
|
|
The timely followup of ``cleanup'' releases reflects the importance
|
|
.SM CSRG
|
|
places on providing a reliable and robust system on which its
|
|
user community can depend.
|
|
.PP
|
|
The development of the Berkeley Software Distribution (\c
|
|
.SM BSD )
|
|
illustrates an \fIadvantage\fP of having a few
|
|
principal developers:
|
|
the developers all understand the entire system thoroughly enough
|
|
to be able to coordinate their own work with
|
|
that of other people to produce a coherent final system.
|
|
Companies with large development organizations find
|
|
this result difficult to duplicate.
|
|
This paper describes the process by which
|
|
the development effort for \*(b3 was managed.
