Software Configuration Management is in the top three most important skills needed
by industry. Yet it is the one with by far the largest knowledge gap between what is
needed by industry and what is taught at universities.
I have tried to fix this knowledge gap. Not just by giving a 7.5 ECTS SCM course in
Lund, Sweden, but also developing a 1 ECTS small course on SCM which should allow
non-experts to teach a little SCM. However, even that seems to be too much for other
universities, so I have developed an even shorter version introducing SCM in just
90 minutes of lecture.
To allow us to discuss if - from an SCM-expert point of view - it is the right thing
that I am teaching, I will start by doing the lecture. Since you are experts, I should
be able to do that in 45 minutes ;-)
