Rule of Open-Source Programming #9:
Give me refactoring or give me death!

Assuming you had everything planned down to the last detail when you started
work, EBS works great. To be honest, though, you may do some features that you
hadn’t planned. You get new ideas, your salespeople sell features you don’t
have, and somebody on the board of directors comes up with a cool new idea to
make your golf cart GPS application monitor EKGs while golfers are buzzing
around the golf course. All this leads to delays that could not have been
predicted when you did the original schedule.
