For my argument it does not matter how it is measured, only that it is
measured consistently. The most accepted way is to measure across the
whole development cycle (maybe exclude requirements phase and field
maintenance). Reporetd rates are some lines per hour (think of 8 or so).
Before you stand up and say 'but I wrote a 100 lines program last hour':
ask yourself where your design, test protocol, user manual etc. are.
