Having the programmer meet certain criteria is important for instance oDesk [odesk.com], they have member accounts and members have to do tests in the languages they code in, grades are awarded just like in ordinary exams. Before a programmer is hired the client has the opportunity of looking at the programmers grades bearing in mind that the client can as well specify the language to be used in the project as well as minimum grades the programmer should meet.

Such a system could be used.

Dennis, is it the software that needs to meet standards or is it the programmers who need to be of a certain quality....i think we should be talking about the programmer...

I do not think that we need an association to develop Standards. Several standards in the computing industry have been developed openly. We can do that right here in skunkworks. Discuss and agree that Software must meet some certain conditions to be standard-compliant
