Long time no Post...
I just realised it has been a long time since I posted to our team blog. The last few weeks had been very hectic. I did a trip to India for a few weeks and did some presentations at TechED 2005 in Hyderabad and Delhi and met with some of the device developer in India. Since my last visit which was about 3 years ago I was amazed at the changes that has happened in all aspects of life. The one thing that got the most of my attention was the usage of Cell Phones - specially SMS in India. Even for the session feedback for my TechED Sessions there was a SMS number to send the feedback to :-)
Since my return it has just been about the 'End Game' - this is the time to put use that hard PM interviews questions we all PMs face - should we fix this bug or leave it ? Every call at this point of the ship cycle is hard. As we complete our test passes, the risk of introducing regressions is high but then at the same time we want to ship a very high quality product. So it takes a lots of extra investments in fixing, buddy testing and reviewing the bugs.
Other big thing at hand is getting ready for the PDC Talk next month. I'll blog more about that in my next post soon.
