QA != Testing
老实说,/.上并不是很多见这类讨论。来自IBM研究院的大牛Stuart Feldman(Make的原作者)为一本不算新的书“Quality Assurance”写的介绍,有人评论道:

From TFA:

QA is described as making sure a project is “measurably meeting expectations and conforming to requirements”

At my job, requirements are often one-sentence requests with no needed detail whatsoever. If it then doesn’t go to a business analyst in the IT department, that’s what the programmers work from. When the QA process starts, it makes it easy to say that you’ve complied with all details of the requirements.

很精辟。

Knoppix 3.8 at CeBIT w/ Kernel 2.6, FF, and More

The German tech news site Heise Online reports that Knoppix 3.8 is being presented at CeBIT (Hall 9, Stand C39). Knoppix 3.8 has kernel 2.6 as default, KDE 3.3.2, OpenOffice 1.1.4, as well as… Firefox 1.0 and Thunderbird 1.0. There’s also a really neato new thing involving unionfs . It seems to imply that you can change most anything on the running system, even as it is running from CD – and changes can be stored too (even on NTFS).

听上去很酷!去弄一个来玩,省得装了。。。
