Talk:Software rot

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

[edit] merge

Does anybody agree that software rot and code rot refer to the same thing, and that the articles should be merged? I personally consider "software rot" to be the main article, and code rot should simply be a redirect. Guinness 11:02, 28 October 2005 (UTC)

I personally dont distringuish between bit rot, software and code rot. I was going to edit this article to try and fit in my definition of bit rot, but couldnt really make it fit.

I would describe bit rot (or what wikipedia calls code or software rot) as when 'the program stays the same but its environment changes', maybe someone else can make it fit. (Glenn)
