About

Welcome to this blog.  I am Woody Zuill.  For a while I have been making my living as a computer programmer.  I have a deep interest in Agile Software Development, shortening the feedback loop, eliminating waste ala Lean Development, hiking, mountain biking, the mountains, banjo picking, extreme downhill bowling, and pan scrapings.

Of particular interest right now is StoryTest Driven Development, why the “Waterfall” development process fails, why Agile development methodologies are worth looking into, Unit/Micro testing, TDD, BDD, and Acronym Driven Develpoment (ADD).

    Hi Woody,

    I’m putting together a Scrum/Agile presentation for our execs. I would really like to use your excellent animated taskboard slide (from the CodeCamp talk). If you don’t mind, could you send it my way (I assume you can see my email above)?

    Thanks
    Dmitry

    Hey Dmitry – Thanks for your interest… and as you know I converted that presentation to a Flash animation: Scrum Task Board Animation

    This was a great presentation this weekend:

    > Agile Development Basics – In this presentation I cover the Agile values and principles, as well as the a little about why we need something like Agile.

    Thanks!

    I’d like to share some of with my team – if you are sharing your slides, could you email them to me?

  4. Woody Z.:

    Thanks Steve – you are too kind. I’ll be happy to send the slides as a PDF over the next few days if that helps. The slides are just my talking points – I use them to remind me of things I want to say, so a lot of what I am trying to convey is left out.

    Woody,
    Is there a way I can contact you about that offer you mentioned at the Dot Net Dev meeting yesterday?
