It is my sincere hope that AutoPSP helps you become a more powerful and productive programmer. I feel that programming is the perfect balance between the hard factuality of the engineer and the artistic freedom of the designer. However, as a programmer I have too often been frustrated by missing deadlines, lacking clear goals, and shifting requirements from management. I'd like to thank Dr. Hansen for introducing the PSP to me, and being open enough to let me tell him when I thought he was wrong. Especially in those cases where I told him he was wrong and he proved otherwise. I'd also like the thank Dr. Humphrey for the PSP idea and a very interesting book. It's hard to write about software processes and not be dry, but A Discipline for Software Engineering does an admirable job.
