Smidig2007
Thursday, November 29th, 2007I came back last night after two great days of conferencing at Smidig2007 in Oslo, Norway. The mornings where all lightning talks and the afternoons where reserved for open space discussions. I gave a lighnting talk on the experiences we have had at WeMind trying to implement a lean enterprise, and I initiated two open space sessions, one on the GUI artists role in an agile process and the other on what makes different languages have so different communities and cultures. I will expand on those in later posts.
During the two days I had the pleasure of hooking up with Niclas Nilsson, Aslak Hellesøy and a bunch og other great people. It was very stimulating discussions and I am really motivated into doing a few new things with our own testing/speccing.
It was all in norwegian, so all you non-scandinavian speakers out there are really missing out on something - finally a reason to take that class in swedish or norwegian you always thought about.
Photos and a few deeper comments are due later, but for now: a big thanks to my norwegian friends for a great time.
