if you happen to be near Columbia, MO around January 16th, feel free to join us at CARFAX for the Mid Mo XP usergroup meeting. This week we’ll have a very special guest speaker: Ron Jeffries, the author of Extreme Programming Installed and the owner of the XProgramming site.

The topic of Ron’s presentation is “The Dynamics of Software Development”, which Ron has described as

Using simple “chalk-talk” charts describing projects’ delivery of
features over time, Ron shows why “running tested features” make
management of software projects easier for everyone, and derives
the reasons behind the practices recommended as part of doing
Agile well.

Should be pretty interesting, and it will be the first time we’ve had a presenter that is well known in the XP community. Hopefully Ron will be the first of many more guest speakers to come (Gary and I keep posting open invitations to XP Mailing List regulars to come out and visit any time they want). ;)
