Discuss the presentation

To create great software from scratch and to turn big ball of legacy mud into a marble are completely different tasks. Many of us know how to create simple and robust interfaces, how to use the most effective and state of the art tools. But when faced against a huge product evolved through decades into a pile of spaghetti, when established processes are ineffective, and when urgent tasks await in the backlog…

I will tell personal experience of participation in establishment of a team aimed on global code quality enhancement. From the point of view of a developer solving organizational tasks. Thus, the talk would be worth listening no only for managers, but also to seasoned developers, who can see systematic problems (and are willing to solve them).
