Chris Spagnuolo writes "Maybe it's something in the air here in Ft. Collins this spring, but I'm feeling the need to change things up a bit. Recently, my responsibilities at DTS have increasingly begun to include a wider variety of functions. So, in the months ahead, I will start expanding the focus of GeoScrum beyond discussions about agile practices. I will begin including topics on the business of software development, marketing, viral marketing, working with distributed teams, and some general presentation goodness. I will also start including more technical content, especially with regard to GIS development, Flash, Flex, Air, and possibly Silverlight. And of course, I'll still be writing plenty about agile and scrum, so stay tuned. I hope all of you who currently read this blog will enjoy the expanded content. Cheers!"

ESRI is Going Agile Development
[+]
Several geoblogs shared their thoughts on Dirk Gorter hired by ESRI and his intentions to use Agile development. Here's the wikipedia article on Agile software development: "Agile software development is a conceptual framework for software engineering that promotes development iterations throughout the life-cycle of the project." From GeoScrum: "Both Dave Bouwman and I have written posts asking when the GIS community will start realizing the benefits of agile practices. I believe that with ESRI taking such a definitive stance in favor of implementing agile practices, that this could be the impetus the GIS world has been waiting for. If the market leader in GIS software is going agile, hopefully the rest of the GIS market will follow their lead."
Slashgeo: Agile GIS Survey Results
[+]
Chris Spagnuolo writes "I've published the results of the 2008 Agile GIS Survey on my GeoScrum blog. You can also download the full whitepaper and a summary of the results at www.chrisspagnuolo.com. An article on the survey results is also available on Directions Magazine.
I would like to thank the following individuals and organizations for their promotion of the Agile GIS Survey: James Fee of Spatially Adjusted and Planet Geospatial , Adena Schutzberg of Directions Magazine , Hilary Perkins of URISA and DTS, Glenn Letham of The AnyGeo Blog, Ron Exler of the GeoFactor, and Agile Commons. I would also like thank Ryan Martens of Rally Software Development for independently reviewing and commenting on the results of this study." The survey was introduced here in early February.
