Now this is how you make a presentation!

[Alastair Pitts]

One of the best presentations I have ever seen. Fantastically well presented and structured.

I signed up for the Student/Startup because of this, so they are the winners!

There is the concept of sprint backlog and product backlog.. it was a good question.

[Alex N]

good presentation, dangerous product. When you have a well-presented stats, it's hard not to start trusting them. But stats are garbage in - garbage out, and developers are bad at filling in and keeping up to date various databases with progress and estimates.

I would rather just talk to the team than have them fill in a database and have that played at me by a tool.

Only hard facts can be statistically analyzed, and even that is very hard to interpret correctly

Does anybody know where I could find a video for the talk that Joel introduces?

Nice presentation, although it could do without Stallman bashing (slide with Gnats).

[Robert Jeppesen]

Separate the actions of Commit and Inflict. Nicely put!
