Interestingly enough, I'm in the opposite situation, I know the quality of my code currently (5) but I don't know what SCALE I'm being graded on! =) *smirk*

J/K but I'm really am in the RL opposite situation. I'm in charge of setting the rules and writing the specs (as well as writing about 95% of the code, welcome to the world of startups) and I'm just not sure where to go with it all.

Taint is a must, CPAN is a must, writing modules vs. hacking code is a must. The problem is the spec changes every day as we think of new things and the priorities are all over the map. One day I write documents for a big presentation, the next day billing code, the day after that I tinker with modules that I want to rebuild the hack jobs I kicked out last week on... Some days I'd rather have unreasonable, blind bosses and a clear direction of failure to head in. Not many tho and whenever it seems bleakest Ovid seems to cheer me back up. =)
