On Sunday the 17th of June I am leaving for Milan to take part in the XP2007 - the 8th International Conference on Agile Processes in Software Engineering and eXtreme Programming. Last year the conference was taking place in Finland and proved to be well worth its costs. This time I am going to present a paper on Predicting Software Density in the Embedded Software Environment

My tutorials and workshops of choice are:

• Tutorial by Joshua Kerievsky: Selling: How To Effectively Communicate The Value Of Agility
• Workshop by Geoff Bache, Emily Bache: Coder's Dojo : Acceptance-Test Driven Development in Python
• Workshop by Wayne Allen: Agile Process Anti-patterns
• Workshop by Ahmed Sidky: How to Guide Agile Adoption Efforts
• Workshop by Julian Simpson, Sam Newman, Tom Sulston: The Daily CI
• Tutorial by Christian Federspiel, Christoph Steindl: How to Overcome Invisible Barriers
• Workshop by Amr Elssamadisy: Discovering Patterns of Agile Practice Adoption

As you see at the moment I am mostly interested in learning the ways for the seamless adoption of agile processes and for communicating the benefits of agile processes.

I am going to try posting my impressions during the conference, so stay tuned.
