Voluntary Human Extinction Movement
Have you heard of the Voluntary Human Extinction Movement? They are seeking volunteers from the following demographics:
Enterprise Architects who are afraid to champion open source
Those who program in Smalltalk and other second-class languages
CTO's of BPM, ECM, ERP, CRM and ESB vendors who haven't yet stepped up to incorporating SAML and XACML support in their product
Six Sigma folks who believe that process is a substitute for competence
Enterprises who allow non-technical IT folks to become CIOs
Those who practice management by magazine but are afraid to admit it
Those who supported Kathy Sierra but didn't call her out on the fact that convicting folks in the court of public opinion is wrong
Those who can't understand the difference between management and leadership
Folks who think agile is a word they should use to describe their otherwise monolithic architectures
Industry analysts who won't put open source projects in the same research reports as commercial closed source offerings
Those who think that innovation is happening within their shop when status quo is pervasive
Folks who voted for George Bush
