I spoke at the Agile IT X conference in Reston VA. This conference is put on by the No Fluff Just Stuff folks and ended up being quite fun. The Panel Discussion took some tangents as they always do but I think you will find it interesting none the less. It looks like they will be running several regional shows next year so drop by if you can and maybe I will see you there. Listen and enjoy. Bob Payne

We chat about their new book on Retrospectives and the Conference within a Conference (CWAC) at Agile 2007. I always enjoy chatting with Esther and Diana and hope to talk with them this year. The CWAC was a great at Agile 2007 and I will be running the Live Aid Stage right next to the Open Jam space this year so I expect to see you there. -bob payne

I spoke with Nancy V. about her survey of bugs in agile teams and a lot of other topics. She has been a regular on the podcast and is always entertaining to talk to. Hope you enjoy. -bob payne

Deb Hartmann ... Deb Hartmann. She is not a Soap Opera from the 70's, she is the editor of the Agile Series at InfoQ. I've known Deb for a long time and got a chance to speak with her after here busy time at the conference. Enjoy -Bob Payne

Ole and I chat about the world of Agile Certifications, the conference and a bunch of other things. I first met Ole through his work with the APLN. Enjoy. -Bob Payne

I speak with Rick Mugridge about ZeBreve, Fit, and the conference. Enjoy. -bob payne

David Celimsky is one of the development powerhouses behind RSpec, one of the first frameworks for Ruby to implement the Behavior Driven Development process. BDD is an interesting process and I like the increased move toward using language that the "user" can understand when describing or systems in executable form. I can now put another face (not Dave Astels as I usually do) to RSpec David. David is great to talk to and I recommend accosting him at conferences to start up a conversation. Enjoy Bob Payne

I spoke with "Joe" Krebs at the Agile Conference regarding the somewhat contentious topic of certification.Enjoy-Bob Payne

I spoke with James Shore about his new book. I have not yet read it but enjoyed the sample chapter that was provided int the packet.My guess is that it will make it onto my permanent bookshelf.Enjoy-bob payne

Johanna is one of those people that I have just never run into until Agile 2007. I really enjoyed my conversation with her and I believe that you will find it rewarding as well.-bob
