Survey Results

What do you need most when collaborating on code?

Survey period: 26 May 2014 to 2 Jun 2014

We probably should have included "Punching bag" and "colleagues who can code" but ran out of room. (1 = not important, 5 = important)

My experience has been that lone wolves are more of a hindrance than a help. They don't collaborate. They go their own way, and pay little attention to the needs of the project or their coworkers. You end up working around them. The net result is project failure, or at best unnecessary delays.
