"obviously GWB&cia can come here and "liberate" us from our democratic constitution or protect the rainforest or other gibberish like that, but somehow I hope not."
I cant imagine Bush trying to "liberate" Brasil. That would be a very, very bad move. We ain't Granada, Panama or even Iraq. Brasil is a continent. You don't occupy continents...
Maintenance also includes evolving the software to adapt it to new requirements. Unix shops suffer with evolving requirements as much as Microsoft shops or Smalltalk shops or any other kind of shop.

Fact 21: article from IEEE Trans. on Soft. Engineering
Fact 37: articles from Barry Boehm, Victor Basili, Marylin Bush.
fallacy 10: Articles from many sources, including IBM Systems Journal, ACM SIGCSE Bulletin and Computing Trends. Susan Lammers' book "Programmers At Work".
Bob Glass ain't no fool. He doesn't make disparate claims...
Extreme Programming advocates code reviews as a good practice. In fact, code reviews are part of the point behind Pair Programming. If code reviews are good, let's review all the time.

Actually he cites a 1979 article from IEEE Transactions on Software Engineering to backup his claim.
