SD Best Practices 2005
In Boston for SD conference for the week.
This morning attended a tutorial "A brief tour of responsibility based design". It was very brief. My little group seemed to want to miss the point of the design exercises and there wasn't much time for them either so I was disappointed with this one.
The keynote was interesting. Michael Schrage was talking about the software development process and was talking on the theme of the software development process being a market i.e. driven by market forces. In support of this he quoted the "Perverse incentives => Perverse Outcomes" idea. He also had some interesting facts about the Win95 Beta program and how Microsoft got so many beta licenses (400,000 ) that they got about a $Billion in subsidy to help them fix their product. He didn't really take any of these ideas to a conclusion though so although it was entertaining I was left pondering.
The afternoon was spent with Ken Schwaber. He is an excellent evangelist for Scrum and we had an entertaining afternoon even if it was not as described (no Bud Selig).
