(Oct 7)
There's an upcoming one-day Agile conference here in North Carolina. Catherine Louis and Patrick Wilson-Welsh have been working hard to bring a world class set of speakers for a short, very affordable conference to RTP.
If you're involved with bringing Agile into your organization, you shouldn't miss this event. There will be content for developers and testers (including a remote tester/developer pairing session. The tester will be in the room and the developer will be in another country!), but there's a strong focus on management as well. We'll have Tom Grant, a Senior Forrester analyst, talking about Agile and innovation, Andy Hunt, Jeff Patton, and more.
Between now and October 22nd you can register for $50. After that it's $100.
