    P-time
    
   
    
     When I first saw that Joi Ito was
writing about P-time, I immediately thought of Polynomial Time.  Of course, I had missed Joi's initial post about 
P-Time during my jury duty week, when I was madly scanning just to keep up with feeds.
I think that P-Time is the right mode for stirring things up, or getting things together, trying to find a way when there is no way.  During the conversations about XMLBeans or Geronimo, I found myself living more of a P-time style day, although it was mitigated somewhat because the ASF culture is more e-mail based, not IRC based.  I think M-Time is better for (certain kinds of) production, writing a program or a book, although you could argue that pair programming is about switching programming from  M-Time to P-Time.
