- 1this isn't a software engineering question, it's a management question.Bryan Oakley– Bryan Oakley2017-11-07 13:03:26 +00:00Commented Nov 7, 2017 at 13:03
- 2@BryanOakley This is a software engineering question - this falls into methods and practices, which is on-topic here. However, it's been cross-posted to Project Management already. I'm not sure why this is getting down votes and close votes.Thomas Owens– Thomas Owens ♦2017-11-07 13:35:26 +00:00Commented Nov 7, 2017 at 13:35
- 2@ThomasOwens First I don't see any engineering here. As I said, you could ask the very same question for a knitting group, being developers is about of the same relevance as the fact that they all wear shoes while working. Doesn't make it on-topic for shoemakers.SE. And I never implied cross posting. I meant to say move it to where it belongs.nvoigt– nvoigt2017-11-07 13:41:30 +00:00Commented Nov 7, 2017 at 13:41
- 1@nvoigt Please see the Help Center - it's very clear that methods and practices (for example, implementing a development process, Scrum, and software project management) are on-topic here. Also, it may not be clear to new users that they shouldn't be cross-posting and the right thing to do is to delete. However, even in that case, telling someone to take on-topic questions to another site is unacceptable.Thomas Owens– Thomas Owens ♦2017-11-07 13:43:42 +00:00Commented Nov 7, 2017 at 13:43
- 1@ThomasOwens Every single answer, those here and those over at PM say not a single word about the relevance of software engineering to this. They are all good, but they are all focused on the project management side only. As such, I find it hard to accept that pointing to the Stack that is the most likely to fit is "unacceptable". I wonder what terms you find for people that don't try to help somebody to get the best answer.nvoigt– nvoigt2017-11-07 13:54:26 +00:00Commented Nov 7, 2017 at 13:54

How to Tag
A tag is a keyword or label that categorizes your question with other, similar questions. Choose one or more (up to 5) tags that will help answerers to find and interpret your question.
- complete the sentence: my question is about...
- use tags that describe things or concepts that are essential, not incidental to your question
- favor using existing popular tags
- read the descriptions that appear below the tag
If your question is primarily about a topic for which you can't find a tag:
- combine multiple words into single-words with hyphens (e.g. design-patterns), up to a maximum of 35 characters
- creating new tags is a privilege; if you can't yet create a tag you need, then post this question without it, then ask the community to create it for you
