Upcoming Presentation and Discussion: "Wanna bet?" How to discuss lightweight development practices with skeptics.
The
Toronto XP/Agile Users Group has just accepted my talk proposal, so on January 16th I’ll be presenting
“Wanna bet?” How to discuss lightweight development practices with skeptics at 7:00 pm.
The location is:
Ryerson University
George Vari Engineering and Computing Centre
245 Church St.
Room ENG 288 / 289
Toronto, Canada
I’ll be talking about various criticisms that have popped up lately—most infamously Steve Yegge’s rant about
Bad Agile—and giving tips for how to constructively debate the value of lightweight or agile development practices with people who may have read this kind of thing.
If you’re in Toronto on the 16th, please join me and the XP/Agile Users group for what should be an interesting evening. The discussions around the presentations are always stellar.
