twofish writes, "Following on from Joel Spolsky's blog on the Windows
Vista shutdown menu, Moishe Lettvin, a former member of the Windows
Vista team (now at Google) who spent a year working on the menu, gives
an insight into the process, and some indication as to what the
approximately 24 people who worked on the shutdown menu actually did.
Joel has responded in typically forthright fashion." From the last
posting: "Every piece of evidence I've heard from developers inside
Microsoft supports my theory that the company has become completely
tangled up in bureaucracy, layers of management, meetings ad infinitum,
and overstaffing. The only way Microsoft has managed to hire so many
people has been by lowering their hiring standards significantly. In
the early nineties Microsoft looked at IBM, especially the bloated OS/2
team, as a case study of what not to do; somehow in the fifteen year
period from 1991–2006 they became the bloated monster that takes
five years to ship an incoherent upgrade to their flagship product."
