So, what standards are they planning to use to license programmers? The ability to write a bugless program on the first try? The ability to churn out thousands of lines of code in a certain amount of time? Programming, in my POV, is more of an art form than some field that rigidly defines its processes to get to some goal. I don't think it is possible to nail down some standards to be licensed in the field. -- Damon@ | "You may be GOOD...maybe even GREAT, but you're a LONG way from umbc.bitnet | being PERFECT!" -- "Mr. Perfect," WWF umbc2.umbc.edu| "Lemme get this straight: you're operating an electrical device ..!uunet!umbc3!damon| and standing in water.
