- The cynical might consider the software immaturity model as a morale
- crutch for organizations on the lower levels of the SEI maturity
- model. Now there's somewhere lower to (not) be:
-
- "Hey, we made it from foolish to initial. We used to be lunatics!"
-
- It instantly makes most on-going concerns mid-pack rather malingerers
- on the bottom.
-
- This is as reassuring as "I'm not a crook," "Read my lips," and "I
- didn't inhale."
