[thelist] What would you like to see in a resource site?

[Ken Schaefer]

Faye,

Some thoughts:
- Just about every major programming language (VB, C++, Java, C#), every
major technology (VS.NET, eclipse, Rational), every major job role
(programmer, business analyst, architect) and every major methodology
(waterfall, scrum, XP/agile) already have their own sites, communities and
bibles. Why is your site going to be any different?

- You have given us no information whatsoever on (a) what languages (b) what
technologies (c) what job roles (d) what methodologies and (e) what interests
your target audience have. How do you expect us to provide you with any
useful resources?

Cheers
Ken

:  		I know...I had the same thought myself...
:  I really don't understand why but I am new in this industry (banking)
:  so everything seems to be secretive and FYEO here....
:  It will probably get to a point where the team will be asked for

:  Thanks for your sympathy though :)
