"Steve Ballmer
In IBM there's a religion in software that says you have to count K-LOCs,
and a K-LOC is a thousand line of code. How big a project is it? Oh, it's
sort of a 10K-LOC project. This is a 20K-LOCer. And this is 5OK-LOCs. And
IBM wanted to sort of make it the religion about how we got paid. How much
money we made off OS 2, how much they did. How many K-LOCs did you do? And
we kept trying to convince them - hey, if we have - a developer's got a
good idea and he can get something done in 4K-LOCs instead of 20K-LOCs,
should we make less money? Because he's made something smaller and faster,
less KLOC. K-LOCs, K-LOCs, that's the methodology. Ugh anyway, that always
makes my back just crinkle up at the thought of the whole thing."


4.  LAYOUT.

I also note some cases where text containing layout elements are too
narrow for the content included and text is sloppily spilling out of those
elements and overlaps the body element.  I have not seen it yet in my
brief view but the hazard is that text spilling out of one element will
overwrite text in other text containing elements.  This problem is evident
with standard browser settings for any user.

Increasing the text size for disability access would only exacerbate such
already existing problems.  Plone can be perfectly compliant with
disability access rules but implementers need to observe them.
