Good link.

DSLB. Some of the questions were a little bit wieghted IMHO. 1 man month divided between 5 people? 1 man month is a pretty short project IME. I am a bit of a solo programmer but also work collaboratorally as part of a team... wait - I forgot this isn't an interiew.

True, I'd have been fairly pleased with just about any result, given how the key is worded.

for a one man month project 1 man is enough.
5 people means that this would be theoretically done in 4-5 days based on 20 days work month.
in practice with 5 people this could be extended to 2 months just as easily...

interesting, but the questions are too generic. I had trouble putting down an answer for about half of them.

part of being a good developer is dealing with ambiguity, poorly written specs, etc.

sometimes you just have to make a judgment call.

I agree, but ended up with PLSC which is pretty much how I would describe my self if asked ...
