Hello All,

I have worked all over the world in 20+ years of IT consulting.

In my experience I have found that although everyone has the overall aim of delivering 'quality' software code, there still remain differences which determine how we achieve it. For example, the extent of documentation, the readiness to use new techniques etc. This could be due to cultural factors and how different people see the world differently.

I am currently in the middle of a PhD investigating a different approach to Software Quality and would really appreciate assistance from the Codeguru community of all nationalities in participating in a short, anonymous survey.

My homepage located at Thames Valley University, London, describes the PhD research and myself, in more detail and has the link to the survey.

Please participate in the survey and help contribute to the understanding of Software Quality in a different way.

Kind regards

David Lee
