As an adjunct in the College of Applied Science IT department I'd like to extend an invitation to attend our Tech Expo. CAS is a technical college operated by...
Here is the Scrum-Ban posting that I was talking about at the meeting last night. http://leansoftwareengineering.com/ksse/scrum-ban/ Regards, - Mark Windholtz ...
My first look into Kanban in software development. http://video.yahoo.com/watch/2150754/6801952 Also a good blog post by David Shore I remember reading about...
Here's some information about Agile going lean and a bit about Kanban in Dr. Dobb's Report on Agile Development. http://www.ddj.com/architect/216600161...
Thanks for these links, Ryan. ... I especially liked this one from James Shore. This was the clearest definition of Kanban I'd seen in the quick reading up...
... Yup, like "StoneSoup (tm)" is a natural evolution of a community soup, where after everyone brings veggies and meat, you take out the stone. More...
Oh, yes that trust is so crucial to the Agile practices, we don't talk about it much I think because we just assume people are good. Shame the word assume has...
So to summarize the groups responses so far, Kanban is: (1) Pretty much the same as Scrum (2) The exact opposite of Scrum (3) Just plain useless ... I bet we...
Well, the origin of kanban is in maufacturing, assembly and inventory control. I helped implement a kanban system at my last client (I wrote the application...
On Thu, May 7, 2009 at 5:01 PM, Charles L Flatt ... Mark's observation at the CART this week I think was insightful. If you've worked on SCRUM projects for...
Thanks, Doug, for your thoughtful reply. Here are some (occasionally long, sorry!) ideas. "If you can afford to throw away your backlog and start over, then...
I presume nothing has changed on this subject but I thought it worth asking. Question: How do I find the ruby classes that implement my interface. Question:...
Ed - First take a deep breath and relax. Flexibility and changeability are good, not evil. The reality of every single system I've ever worked on (in fact, of...
How about writing a test suite for the interface and running it against each of the subclasses? When the tests pass the interface is completely implemented. ...
I can definitely understand your point of view, Ed, and I've been sitting here off and on trying to figure out how to respond. My first thought was, "if this...
... Like Chris, I've been giving this question some thought. Have these issues been a real stumbling block for you? I think there are a couple of reasons for...
Well, thank you everyone for your input, I just keep thrashing this one around in my head and I think we are missing something. 1) Interface testing This is an...
Ed, about your point about profitable software: it depends on what you are selling. If you are selling software as a service, then we have no problem. If you...
Yes Mingle does it which speaks to my point if needing a way to export interfaces from the obfuscated code because you can't read it. I don't see how this...
... You are confused by Java's weak definition of interfaces. Real interfaces have semantics and those semantics should be specified. In Java, the only way...
Bill, Thanks for sending out the new link. This is working fine now. Since we are allowed to vote once every day, I hope everyone remembers to keep voting for...
Jim, dude, you always make me use words that say what I mean when all I have is what I mean and random words so say :-) ... Agreed, so my use of the word is...
Not sure if this is too far for you Cinci folk, but FYI. ... From: Winston Tsang <goodconsumer@...> Date: Wed, May 13, 2009 at 10:10 PM Subject: The...
I'm trying to follow this conversation, but I don't understand the practical implications of this. I think that's because there's fuzzy language about feature...
On Thu, May 14, 2009 at 12:29 PM, Rob Biedenharn ... Maybe that proves Ed's point. I've just been using Enumerable, when I really wanted Comparable and...
... to remind them to say what they mean. We regularly use that catch- phrase with Amy who loves to co-opt words to give them her own private definitions. So,...
