>> Note* I am not asking how much it is worth, I would just like to see the # of lines of code mentioned.<< Alydaar has, when permitted by the client, revealed the #LOC, even when the contract was for only one or two million lines (such as GRE Insurance). Large cos. are not willing to reveal the scope of their project as anyone can easily multiply LOC by 30 cents or more to determine Y2K liability. Seems to me that large cos. would be more likely to insist that the co. use the term "pilot" or the # of LOC if it was only an insignificant contract. In any event, given that the co. has announced contracts w/ a small # of LOC, doesn't it seem likely that the DuPonts, 3Ms, McDonnell Douglasses, and Whirlpools of the world are substantially larger? -Felt Burner
