Hi team, In the last meeting I mentioned to Jason about "Waterfall to agile" demo. I have facilitated this demo for a couple of clients to help them experience...

... For what it's worth, the PhillyOnRails group regular meeting date is still up in the air. We originally chose first Tuesdays because "Ruby Tuesdays"...
Thanks, I think it's probably a bit late to switch this month's meeting (I can't make it this coming Tuesday). We could shoot for the second Tuesday starting...
At the November meeting, I tossed out the idea of doing Open Space sessions. I probably didn't explain very well that there is typically a central theme to the...
Hi Niraj, This sounded very interesting to me. If we were to do Open Space sessiona, do you think that this would fit into an "adopting Agile" theme? Or, would...
... Thanks for thinking about this group. I think the philly groups Wiki you started is a great place to make sure we don't regularly schedule Philly ...
Namaste Jason/Group, I'm fine with any option. May be we can club it with Open spaces, but its a 1.5 activity. -- Naresh Jain http://jroller.com/page/njain ...
Jason, I believe the next meeting is the 20th, correct? Since we're using the YahooGroups site, it would help if the calendar were updated to show meeting...
OK, Another option is to split the meeting up into two 1-hour blocks. We could have an hour of Open Space sessions and then an hour of a specific topic, such...
Bob, Thanks for the gentle prodding. Yes, the meeting is on the 20th. I added it to the calendar. And, I reserved the room downstairs again (about a week or so...
Any other suggestions for Open Space themes? Is there a topic that people on this list would really like to discuss at the meeting? Any pressing issues people...
2nd Tuesday works a bit better for me, personally. John ... John Ashmead Ashmead Software & Consulting, Inc. 139 Montrose Avenue Rosemont, PA 19010-1508 (610)...
Sounds good to me. Based on people's interest, we could do the activity first and then let it flow into specific discussion/s. I would not worry too much about...
Jason, I like the proposed schedule, and the "Introducing Agile" topic should definitely get the conversation moving. One other topic could be "How to measure...
I know this is going to sound smug but the answer is "working, tested features" to quote Ron Jeffries. Anything else and you've lost sight of your business. I...
Interesting topic. Personally, I believe that "working, tested features" is the best general metric that comes closest to "measuring success" that I've seen....
Apologies if you get this message multiple times. The next Agile Philly meeting is on Tuesday, December 20th, with networking and social time from 6:30-7pm,...
Hello, The Philadelphia Apache Developers (PAD) User Group is pleased to announce their first meeting. We would like to invite anyone who utilizes, commits, or...
Hello, Quick question. Are you planning on regularly having your meetings the 2nd Tuesday of each month? Too soon to say for sure? There was some discussion on...
Hi Jason, We were thinking more along the lines of meetings once a quarter. The scheduling would be more in-line with the availability of speakers - but...
What about if we think of Apache and Agile as 2 subsets of some larger space with a lot of overlap. "We" meet 2nd Tuesday of every month. But every 3rd month...
Joel, I like that idea. There is definitely overlap, and probably much shared interest. BJ ... What about if we think of Apache and Agile as 2 subsets of some...
Hello, Things got very crazy over the Holidays. I would have liked to have posted this message earlier. I thought the December meeting was great, despite a...
Thanks Jason. I think it was fun. I'm going back to India for 2 weeks on Jan 20th. If we plan to meet before that I would be happy to come and help Joel...
