This project started from my frustration that I could not find any simple, portable XML Parser to use inside my tools (see CONDOR for example). Let's look at the well-known Xerces C++ library: the complete Xerces project is 53 MB! (11 MB compressed in a zipfile). I am currently developping many small tools. I am using XML as standard for all my input /ouput configuration and data files. The source code of my small tools is usually around 600KB.
The Software Process Dashboard Project is an open-source initiative to create a PSP(SM) / TSP(SM) support tool.
We feel that the PSP and the TSP are remarkable technologies that can change the face of the software industry, and we share the SEI's zeal to promote their widespread use. We feel that a freely available, powerful support tool could help to remove one of the most significant barriers to PSP / TSP adoption. We therefore aim to develop a world-class tool under the open-source model, and distribute it freely to anyone using the PSP and/or TSP. We feel that this is the least we can do to thank the SEI for developing and distributing these remarkable processes.
