No doubt that was Tom's intention all along. There are still places available as of 31st August, so anyone else interested in joining the debate this Wednesday is very welcome to do so.

I would argue Lean has benefited from the failure of Scrum and goes a long way to explaining its recent rise in poularity within our industry, but Lean still needs XP too, so it won't be going anywhere.Rob Bowleyhttp://blog.robbowley.netnoreply@blogger.com
