The first step of the jorney

Hello all,

The main reason that make me start this blog is to share my experience in being a technical leader in a project that is using Agile practices. My company is migrating some of our projects from a formal process based on RUP to a lightweight Agile process.

We just start this week and we already have a deadline, 30th of November.

I choose to use the book "The Agile Samurai" from Jonathan Rasmusson as a guide to my activities and the posts. If you want to read more about the his work and about Agile you can go to his awesome website:  http://www.agilenutshell.com/.

I plan to write every weekend about what happened during the week and have special posts after each sprint - we decided to have sprints of fifteen days. This weekend I intend to write about the project, the team and the inception deck.

As you already notice, I also start this blog to practice my English writing skills. So, I apologize before hand about my mistakes. But I hope that you may help me get better on this with your comments.

I think that is all for now.

Best regards,

Gustavo
