SDLC! What a joke!!!!!
I've never seen a large project managed in any Corporation that didn't
utterly suck.
The notion that software development is more Organic is closer to the
truth. Even with the best planning, you typically will run software
development along the path of:
Design it
Build it
Deploy it
Rewrite from scratch and have something that works.
Modify from there as needed to evolve with the understanding of and needs
of the applications 'itch'.
That's an evolutionary process.
