Hello, Jared. On Thursday, February 1, 2007, at 5:11:11 AM, you ... You're getting close to my point, Jared. The assertion was made that the only user stories...
That's really interesting, one of the primary reasons to go for agile methods is to provide better, more concrete feedback so that the customers have a better...
