Community reflections

Abstract

The agile community/movement is growing and changing faster every day. As the initial agile flavors blend, the community continues to reach out, gathering new ideas from other communities and disciplines. One such practice, retrospectives/reflections, is an example of the agile community embracing an idea that harmonizes with the core principles of agile. As retrospectives and reflections are now a mainstay for many agile communities, this session is a way for the community to share in this practice. Using the fishbowl format, the session will start with a discussion among long time players in the agile community. Once the conversation is rolling, anyone interested may join the discussion, sharing their experiences or opinions. The moderator will be gathering questions for the fishbowl and keep the conversation flowing through the many topics present at the conference and during the session. Over all, this is a place for the community to meet and reflect on where we have been, what we have learned, and discuss topics and paths for the future. © Springer-Verlag Berlin Heidelberg 2007.
