Comment: 

Charles Mitchell trains people to do y2k remediatiuon. He poosted this on Peter de Jager's forum on February 19.

Canadian firms are way behind, he says.

We held a seminar for the McCabe toolset in Toronto last week, and in the course of the conversations it had become obvious that no company represented at the seminar was more than 10% of the way thru their project. These were all large organisations, with many lines of code to remediate and test. Is this prevalent, or is it "only in Canada"? With the base plans calling for at least 50% project time required for testing, this only leaves 11 months left to do everything else before the 'drop dead' date. Amazing.
