Great reply. Agreed mostly, however when you are working with over-confident developers (specially good ones too early in their careers), sometimes things get out of hand. The developers should try to give proper estimates. I was kind of coming up from a project manager's point of view who already has a software development background. The multiplying by 2 is stretching the fact a little too much, but was more trying to make a point. If you really have a great team of experienced developers then ofcourse you don't add too much of a buffer. But thanks for the observations and comments - this way we all learn more.
