I guess "not publishing your login email" is a part of the "account is hard to hack" thing

Don't listen to those others, they are developers and most of us have a low opinion of PMs. IMHO a good PM should also have been a BA on the way, I also think a good developer should be able to do the work of a BA so make sure you have those analysis and design skills.
PM is paperwork, meetings, organising the business and cajoling bastard programmers into doing their job and then more meetings. If you have a taste for that then go for it. If you desire to make a career through management then it is probably a good step. Personally I dislike the idea of a frontal lobotomy and paperwork is something I avoid like the plague.

The programmer then has to spend a good 20-30% of their time placating/pulling the wool over the PM's eyes, instead of doing productive work

You're just a cynical old bugger
My current PM is an ex coder then a top notch BA and now moved into PM, bloody hopeless at looking after the people part but does an excellent job getting the work done. I've had 2 top quality BA/PM over the last 9 years with this company and count my blessings for them.

Dare away. I'm not a supporter of hacking in any form, so I will not be involved in this.
If you continue, then I may change my attitude and join those who vote your various accounts as abusive...

Because I'm not about to reply to your private email and give you any of my email addresses in the process. Any more than I would publish the hotmail address you use for logging in which is sent with each of your private messages...

Griff, he is a troll, and has been reproted as such several times already. Ignore him, it will eventually solve the problem.

FYI, I'd let the Chief Cook and Bottle Washer know, I'm sure Chris would be happy to know about abuse of the system,
And another thing, teh contractor reported another contractor* for abusing his name. Confused? All will become clear in the next episode of "The Lounge".

So which members's son is the spawn of Satan, and who thinks they are invisible? Who was abducted by Bob, and replaced with a lookalike? These questions — and many others — will be answered in the next episode of...SoapProject!

I've recently moved into a more supervisory/managementy role; setting tasks for people, checking progress, keeping the customer happy, getting more involved with planning with PM etc
And, to tell you the truth, I'm bored out of my mind - and that's not to say that I've got no work to do; sometimes I barely have time to take a dump; it's the nature of the job that bores me.
If you love problem solving, coding, developing, testing - then the PM route may leave you unfulfilled - it is just politics, meetings, emails, paperwork, keeping angry customers happy, cajoling engineers to do things they may not necessarily want to do (and neither do you but you have no choice) etc
Also, I wouldn't agree that a good programmer makes a good PM - to me they are different roles entirely, utilising different skill sets.
I've worked with only a handful of, what I would call, outstanding PM's.
As a PM, you have to take a step back from the Engineering side of things and let your engineers do that job, your role is to manage the job, keep to the budget, bring it in on time and deal with the all the internal/external politics.
It's not my idea of a fun job, I'll be going back to what I enjoy for the next role - but like they say it's whatever floats your boat.
