Well, we are a rather small company (25 people) and of those 25 people,
we have 5 programmers, including me. Everytime we sell a project
management starts whining about time. In other words, they sell
sollutions but don't really take good guesses at how much time it would
take to produce the software.
Allways whining about time, time, time, sigh.
So basically we do not get time to study these tools because they don't
see the need for versioning and so on. If we would use it and we
wouldn't lose time implementing such a system, management wouldn't
complain. That's why i asked for a quick and easy way to start using
something like that.
Additional problem is that one of the programmers hate's commenting his
code and doesn't like to use tools like a cvs.
But that's a different story.
We would actually be developing faster (reusable code) with these tools
but somehow they aren't convinced of that.
