Looking at Dr. Menzies' notes, it looks like we need to summarize one more paper from 2008-2010. A quick search revealed this one was cited by our Vista paper and is from 2008. What do you all think? Do you have any better suggestions?

meneal commented 9 years ago

I think this paper is a fine choice. It'll be interesting to see what Microsoft Reasearch thinks about the Mythical Man Month. What do you think, Sasha?

aisobran commented 9 years ago

Yeah this paper works for me.

Just pushed a start to the summary. Just be aware, there are quite a few instances of bad grammar in the paper.

meneal commented 9 years ago

I just added a bunch of stuff up here. We just need one more keyword and the connection to other papers and we're all set. Agreed that there are a ton of mistakes in this paper, I circled 5 or 6.

ghost commented 9 years ago

Does anyone else plan on adding the remaining stuff? If not, I'll get this finished by tonight.

aisobran commented 9 years ago

I can finish it up

aisobran commented 9 years ago

Why are references 1 and 3 in the summary?

ghost commented 9 years ago

They were in the previous paper but I didn't remove them in case we wanted to reference them. You can remove them if you don't need them.

aisobran commented 9 years ago

Done, I'm good to go on submission.

ghost commented 9 years ago

We need two more possible improvements. I can look at the paper again and find them but I'm not sure if any of you had some first.

aisobran commented 9 years ago

The earliest I could get to this is by tonight.

meneal commented 9 years ago

FYI on upgrade to El Capitan there are problems with Latex. I stupidly upgraded thinking that Apple wouldn't screw me again. They always screw you. Whenever you upgrade to El Cap you'll need to download maxtex-2015. I tried to just fix it in place with my old version, but no dice.

I'm on El Capitan. Latex is working fine. Try TexShop.

meneal commented 9 years ago

Weird. I use textmaker. I don't get anything back when I run which pdflatex now. Did you already install the 2015 version of mactex? It was already patched.

aisobran commented 9 years ago

Not using mactex, I'm using texshop.

meneal commented 9 years ago

Texshop is actually mactex/texlive underneath. Mactex is the one that actually puts out the compiler for OSX. They have those goofy alice in wonderland graphics on their site, and a huge distribution for OSX at 2.4G. You can get a smaller version (basictex), but it is short on most of what you need.

Anyway, good reason to try out one of these fancy latex online editors. Papeeria seems interesting.

meneal commented 9 years ago

I spent some time trying to come up with some other potential improvements, but I honestly can't come up with anything. I think the paper is really sound aside from the grammatical and spelling errors. Anyone else have ideas?

aisobran commented 9 years ago

Added two more potential improvements. I endorse submission.

meneal commented 9 years ago

Looks good to me. If Joseph is good with it we should submit.
