Description:

The Software Process and Measurement CAST features a wide ranging interview with Capers Jones, founder and Chief Scientist of Software Productivity Research (www.spr.com).  As with any discussion with Capers, take out your pencil and paper and get ready to write.  One of the great features of a podcast is that that you can hit the pause key and even back up.  You will need it, it was a great interview.

The essay for this podcast is titled, Measurement Proliferation, Guarding The Peace or Mutually Assured Destruction?  The article explores proliferation in depth (measuring the same thing many ways) and breadth (measuring everything).
