    Personally, I have never been a fan of online VCS. The human aspect of public vs private aside, it has always just seemed less secure to me.

    I really like Grant's idea here of Log Shipping to continue to test and keep your new system close to the old one.

  • RE: Software Engineering in Practice

    True, but not everyone starts in a small shop. Plenty of people change jobs, and the more we apprenticed, the more talented people that would move on to other positions.
