Just a quick post that includes a batch of links on Co-location:
The Michigan Study on co-location and the conversation it recently spawned on the scrum development list.
A Study Case: Evolution of Co-Location and Planning Strategy based on work done at TransCanada pipelines. I don’t know anything about this study since I don’t want to pay the IEEE $19 just for six page paper. To the IEEE – here’s a hint I’ve paid far less for very useful books, that were written on paper and shipped to me. This is just a pdf, $2 seems more inline with reality.
Adoption stories war stories in large enterprises:
Timo Punkka documents Schneider-Electric’s adoption of Scrum for embedded software development. I always knew embedded software development was hard this just reminds me of some of the challenges.
Agile From The Trenches – A real world example Keith Sterling’s story of Agile adoption in a UK telco to help it build and rollout a broadband provisioning platform.
