    I might just make it in Tokyo -- I'll be just off the plane from Shanghai.

    The WTF in QI is that if anything breaks at all, it is considered that the whole system is broken.

    Ok, you could say that's a limitation, but proper versioning and dependencies should be set up so that you can move parts forward that don't depend on anything that is currently broken.

    The old "you broke the build" should no longer be a major issue. I was rather surprised it was the first time I joined a company who did a "build everything" process. I had always built component-wise.

    By the way, having automated tests is good. Having unit tests is good. Unit tests compiling with the build is bad. Not a fan of CppUnit or any of its equivalents.

    Fifth.

    Sadly, the ship already left for Tokyo.

    In my previous project we had a build all solution that contained all of the components, but it was only used for builds. So if you broke your component no one cared, until it came time for the build. So I personally have no issue with programs having build everything solutions if they are not abusing it.

    Thank you for the mug. Have you got the lord of laser pointers yet?

    All the stickers, buttons and the mug you left here at QCon Beijing have found their new owners. These lucky developers will soon notice what a scary, eye-opening and motivational place they just set their foot on.
