Richard Martineau : "C'est ça qui menace la culture, bien plus que l'hégémonie de l'empire américain:

Dennis E. Hamilton : Software Engineering for Everyone

"Nowadays I incorporate documentation as an inseparable part of the design of programs. Assuring that a program is explicable is my primary test for conceptual economy of the software itself. Even when I am not building software for anyone else to use, I preserve the hard-won habit of documenting what I am doing as if it is intended for others to be able to use without having written it themselves. Truthfully, I don't ever think otherwise, because that someone else is often my forgetful future self."
