on “The traveling German carpenters”The software craftsmanship movement is starting to get this sort of thing going. At least the idea of apprentice, journeyman and master are taking shape, and a number of software development companies have done craftsman swaps. Corey Haines http://www.coreyhaines.com/ in particular has done a lot to actually live like the software equivalent of these carpenter journeymen.

on “The traveling German carpenters”For the love of God, take your time. Absolutely. If you really want to learn, you'll do far better by apprenticing than by studying in the classroom. Check out Corey Haines ( http://www.coreyhaines.com/ ) for inspiration. Then, if you want a little more formal understanding, go back to school. But don't go until you've worked for a while - like 10 years.
