Some PMs do deserve to be taken out on the streets and shot at, or maybe even hanged in public square like the witches in the old days.

An interesting article Yuri. Thanks. Not sure that your suggested solution is all that useful though. :D
"As a result, companies undertaking large projects will need a process that provides detailed cost/schedule metrics for all projects with time-phased cost reporting and continually updated completion estimates. Senior management will need visibility into this project performance data at all times along with the confidence that the underlying process is sound."
This has always been a practical requirement not just because of some legislation...IMHO. The question is, why doesn't it happen every time? There have been enough studies to show that 1. small projects fail because they are considered to be too small to require any method of monitoring/control :( and 2. that many others are conceived (poorly) by senior management before the PM is brought into the room. S/he is given what they get and told to implement it (Biblical house building on sand).

Hi newbie,
I had not considered that possibility...but it could well apply. I might make some enquiries..
