Some Inaccurate Statements About Software Factories

Tomorrow I'm going to talk about Software Factories in the developer forum we have on my company. Right now I'm writing a short PowerPoint presentation about the topic. I was searching the net for good ideas about what to say and what to show. I found this really good post from Jack Greenfield about "Some Inaccurate Statements about Software Factories". Read this post!

The first time I heard about Software Factories was in a .NET user group meeting. After that meeting I was very sceptical to Software Factories and I had misunderstood the concept the same way as the article Jack’s referring to. Maybe I misunderstood the whole thing or maybe the speaker wasn’t able to explain it right…. I don’t know and it doesn’t matter. It was first when I read about Software Factories when I come home I understood the meaning and what the purpose is.

It was Jack Greenfield and Keith Shoort et.al. that wrote the book “Software Factories: Assembling Applications with Patterns, Frameworks, Models & Tools".
