[IxDA Discuss] designer/programmer ratio?

[Dave (Heller) Malouf]

I have to say I'm not so sure I buy the whole ratio of 
designers:developers methodology.
The reason being is that they are in different time phase alignments and 
both have differing levels need depending on the specific criteria of a 
project.

so my answer to all this, is "it depends".

What is important is for the design team to understand their roles and 
responsibilities and for them to be in enough control to set their 
resource and timing needs for the types of projects they are working on. 
A magical equation is not going to be "one size fits all".
