My career in corporate was characterized by being called in to fix "problems" that had proven to be intractable to the application of the currently-in-use approaches. My work now, as an independent consultant, is even more so. XP, at one level, represents a new "tool" that, in a future situation, I might find appropriate to suggest as potentially valuable / viable. In getting the potential customers I have in mind to the point where they're willing to consider calling in an XP expert, I'll need to be able to address a potentially large list of possible hurdles re: their impression of XP / Agile practices. I'm still researching what those hurdles might be and how I might address them. Sorry if my preparation annoys you. Best regards, Bill ------------------------ Yahoo!
