We are still baking, same temperatures, with still rising humidity. A weather turn is predicted for tomorrow. I got to define a bunch of files for TOS, the E-commerce 'version' of TeleSales. The original concept was to provide a subset of the TeleSales functionality over a browser interface to a select group of customers. The people from Progress that are designing it don't know TeleSales. Pieter and Theo have to guide the project but neither of them know TeleSales well. The result is that new functions are creeping in that have no counterpart in either TeleSales or OMSI-3. There is no objection to adding new features per se but we (Ronny and me) notice that these features are not essential and are a bit overshooting the original aim. Fine for a general e-commerce application but not fitting in our current database design. The result will be pretty but with performance problems. And a lack of maintenance procedures.
Welcome to Corporate culture. I did not check out the news today. Again. Is the world still turning? |
