Quotations
625 ;;Quote: estimate effect of using a tool by recording tool usage, comparing it to change history, analyzing similar developers and modifications with a change effort estimation algorithm
626 ;;Quote: Version Editor users were 40% more productive than text editor users on files with version markup via preprocessor directives; big effort saving
633 ;;Quote: bug fixes were 50% more difficult than new code, structure improvements, or code inspection suggestions
633 ;;Quote: the developer and type of change effected effort, but size of change did not; small changes such as MRs are more uniform in size than releases or features
