Welcome to the Software Process and Measurement Cast 107!

The Seven Deadly Sins popularized by Dante have been used as an analogy for a fallen man’s tendency to sin and as analogy for the ills or risks of many professions.  The analogy fits as well for software metrics; focusing attention on the behaviors that could sap your program’s integrity, effectiveness and life span. This paper looks at a set of deadly sins from the point of view of a person or group that is creating or managing a metrics program. In the Software Process and Measurement Cast 107 we explore the effect of measurement lust. 

co-authored by Murali Chematuri and myself and published by J. Ross Publishing has hit the bookshelves!  According to one the reviews on Amazon:

"There are lots of books on software project management. Why this one and who is the audience? "Mastering Software Project Management" is an attempt to provide coverage of all the major topics that must be addressed in managing a software development project."

If you a project manager or know project managers buy yourself a copy and a second to lend co-workers!
