"Foundational" business software Posted Jan 3, 2008 11:10 UTC (Thu) by yodermk (subscriber, #3803) [Link] Huh? That could be useful but it's at best a tiny subset of what I'm talking about. I am discussing more business-related software that ties things together.

Otherwise you are building with straw and sticks. Enterprise level software takes a lot of work and the slickness you are wanting takes a lot of effort to do. It costs lots of money, time and rigor that is usually locked up inside of a company never to see the light of day.. and when it does see the light of day.. the code is usually a horrible mass of crap that cant be used for anything but a single project. It will take a quite a bit of energy to get products out and they won't be built tomorrow unless someone is willing to throw a billion or 2 into a project they probably won't see a penny from.
