Recent grad working full-time for an engineering firm that tackles just about any project related to electrical/systems engineering in the industrial world.
Problem: we still use time tracking/invoicing software from the mid-90s.
Attempted solution: develop an in-house replacement.
They've been working on and off for over a year now, I was asked to contribute when I joined due to my (limited) background in software development.
After a few months I realized that I don't think it's worth the time or energy to make an in-house solution that will need to be maintained forever.
How do I discuss this with my coworkers - particularly the one who has dedicated a great deal of time to developing this project? Especially as the newest and most inexperienced employee.
