Linda, thanks with your help getting us a place to meet in March.  We're also looking for a venue for July 3.  Is Siemens available to host then?

Hi Linda,

Hope things are fine on your side.

Since I'll be going back to India in June, I have handed over the Agile Philly User Group to Andre. Andre will work with you for the future meetings.

Andre, please feel free to contact Linda for any future meetings. She has been very very supportive and helpful. Wish we had more people like her :)

Wade,

 

I'm sorry I didn't include you in this note (see forwarded message below)!  At this point I'm not comfortable calling myself a co-chair of any sort for Agile Philly; I'm more comfortable just saying I'm a member of the coordinators' group, a group that ensures Naresh's responsibilities (Scheduler) get taken care of.  Frankly I've been overwhelmed by this new task (and mostly focussed on finding out who is out there to help out), and as I'm starting to figure it out I realize I've let some things / some contacts slip through the cracks (like making sure you're aware of what's going on).  I can't remember what role(s) you were most interested in--outlined at http://wiki.agilephilly.com/index.php?title=Volunteering_to_serve_in_an_Administrative_Role_for_a_month  -- but if you're signing up to play the role of Scheduler, that would be great--we can take turns.  Naresh booked the speaker for May, I got June fully booked, so the next month to work on is July.  Any ideas?  One thing we like to do is make sure the speakers and the host are not from the same company.

 

I'm currently working on an announcement about the upcoming two events and about a proposed admin/coordinators meeting to be held Thur Apr 26.  At that meeting we'll actually be 'pair programming' the content into the site.  I just don't know the topic of May's talk yet...I expect to know monday.

 

Anyway, this type of higher-bandwidth communication will be on the agile philly coordinators list serve, which we just set up a week or so ago--see below--and please sign up!

Hello, Andre – we are happy to host.  We actually just moved to a larger office across the parking lot from where we were – we have a lot more space and a pretty large training room to work with.  As an aside, I thought you and I were going to be co-chairing these things… Did I get dropped off of some distribution lists??  Let me know.  Thanks!  Wade

Subject: upcoming Agile Philly event in May in search of venue

 

Brian, Wade,

 

We're looking for a venue for the Agile Philly event in May.  We tentatively have scheduled a speaker for Tuesday, May 1--would it be an option to host this at your site?

Regards,

D. André Dhondt

If you're a software developer in the area, join Agile Philly ( http://groups.yahoo.com/group/agilephilly/)!

Part 2 of Agile Project Management will be booked for June 5, at Gestalt.  Thanks for your help in making this happen! 

 

I'm still working on the venue for May (it may be at Siemens but I didn't get a confirmation yet), but I'll announce both and post them online soon.

James,

 

Thank you for agreeing to give a talk for the May Agile Philly user's group meeting!  We'd like to hear the topic you have in mind, and eventually see an abstract of your presentation.  The abstract will be posted on the wiki--examples are at http://wiki.agilephilly.com/index.php?title=Current_events.  Did Naresh mention what venue we'd have this event?  If not, I'll start working on finding one.

 

 

Kind Regards,

D. André Dhondt

Ibrahim Abdelshafi, Vice President of Development for Primavera Systems,

will present on Agile Project Management.

There has always been this myth that Agile, and specifically Scrum, is anti Project Management. In reality, Scrum is all about Project Management and, in fact, our project management practices here at Primavera are stronger now than they were before we started adopting Agile Development methodologies.

This session will explore what Agile Project Management is all about, and what practices we follow here at Primavera to manage Agile projects.

6:30 - 7:00 - Greet, Food, intro, and announcements, etc.

7:00 - 8:00 - Ibrahim's presentation

8:00 - 8:30 - Conclusion and further discussion

See http://wiki.agilephilly.com/index.php?title=Agile_Project_Management for more information.

If you would like to attend, please RSVP via email to ^{AgilePhillyCoordinators@yahoogroups.com ASAP so we have an accurate count.}

Thanks!
