You've heard about Agile methods; Scrum, Extreme Programming, and the others. They used to grow subversively, as a grass-roots, under-the-radar effort by a few, out-there programmers and project managers who wanted to deliver higher quality products and gain more control over their work lives. Now it's become a buzzword, an "enterprise initiative" mandated by your executives. Can that be good? What does Agile mean for folks on the front-line: the coders, testers, usability wonks, and others? Come to this day-long session with two experienced Agile practitioners to get answers about what Agile means for your work.
