Low-grade Amount of Annoyance
August 31, 2007Nice snippet on Agile process that Doug Wright picked up at his Rails conference last week:
“Every team should have a very low-grade amount of annoyance that you have not quite enough process. This means you have just enough process.”
Doug just alerted me to the source…he was paraphrasing Stuart Halloway of Relevance, a great Rails developer who was previously a big figure in the Java developer world.
Thanks for picking that up, Phil! I just want to make sure that is correctly attributed. I think it is a little more of a paraphrase than a quote and it was by Stuart Halloway (here’s an out-of-date bio: http://www.nofluffjuststuff.com/speaker_view.jsp?speakerId=6). His company is Relevance (http://relevancellc.com/) and he is a great Rails developer who was previously a big figure in the java developer world.
