interesting - there is always an inflection point where a team gets large enough, professional enough, that more of its time is dedicated to metrics and co-ordination - and at a diseconomy of scale - there are tools that can help postpone the day, but it seems to be an immutable law.

I am reminded of a quote by JS Haldane : at a certain height a falling cat will walk away, a human will break and a horse splash.

increasing the volume / surface area ratio will result an gravity playing a bigger part in ones lives and capabilities - it's the same here. mass, size, etc of an organisation does count.


Does anyone have an idea what they're using for the grids or are they home baked? I'm going through the source to find out more but thought just in-case someone knew from memory..



it's nice to see their internal projects as open source.


i wonder if it will be compiled for windows 8
