[AccessD] Somewhat OT: Secrets of successful IT projects

Hi Andy

In other words, the department is allocated out of sight and becomes "they" instead of "some of us"?

I think it's where the company thinks to itself "mmm, IT people don't need
to talk to real people do they? and I know company HQ is in Chicago, but
land's cheap in Uzbekhistan, so that's where we'll put IT". Perfectly
reasonable.

Thanks Steve.

Could someone please explain what an "out-of-the-way IT department" is?

Dear Group,

I do a lot more reading of SQL Server resources and .NET resources these
days. The technology moves on. I found this new article on SQL Server
Central and I thought you lot would find that it confirms things you've
learned about project management of software development:
