@Evans I am certainly interested. I've written to KEBS already and not received a response. Anyone in the indistry is well advised to make sure to get on this particular committee.
I'm very intrigued -- has any other country attempted anything like this?
I am aware that KEBS formed a committee about a month ago to look into the issue of Software deverlopment standards. They also need resources on that committee. In case anyone on this list is interested, I can hook you up with the KEBS people. They actually need your input on these matters. Anyone interested?IkuaOn Fri, Nov 20, 2009 at 1:22 PM, aki <aki275@googlemail.com> wrote:
@Rad, @Billy. Thanks for sharing your insights too. Client is king and I can now understand how difficult it would be for many to build from scratch given the limited options. So the entire problem is driven by clients and not programmers. I can also understand that clients may not have the budgets to pay for a full scale paid script and solution. We share the same experiences in the network world too.Correction on my part was definately in order, thanks to those who have straightened the record else I'd under the impression that coders are not doing what they can.Freeware is off the hook from me... :-)As a final clarification, what would be model programming standards in kenya?- Be practical, re-use code and tools to save on time and costs.- Be innovation, provide a one stop gui/graphics/programming/development solution. These items do not have to be inhouse, can be sourced externally.I think now the immediate issues are what Kebs/KICTB come up with.Rgds._______________________________________________
