The Software Process and Measurement Cast 475 features the majority of the SPaMCAST Crew in a round-robin discussion.  The recording session covered three topics; however, today we tackle the first topic: Whether agile can be used in other parts of the business.  We will return to the next two topics in February!  Six people with strong opinions. It is a pretty amazing discussion. Voices you often hear on the SPaMCAST include this cast of incredible minds: (Architecture) (Quality Assurance) (Software Development) (Lean and Kanban) (Product Development) - not on this week’s cast (Agile Practitioner) Re-Read Saturday News This week we take a break from our re-read of Actionable Agile Metrics for Predictability: An Introduction by Daniel S.
