Alex Harms and I recently started a wiki about distributed Agile. We're 
hoping to collect (and perhaps to self-organize) shared wisdom: when it 
can't work, when it can, and how.


We'd love it if any and all of you shared a bit of your experience. 
You're cordially invited to join and contribute as little or as much as 
you like. The wiki's here: http://shapemywork.com/


It might look a little sleepy right now, possibly because I brought it 
online right before disappearing to get married (twice, on separate 
continents) and to join a new team. I'm pretty sure I'm done getting 
married now, and it's a distributed team, so even if nobody else pitches 
in, I expect to be contributing to the wiki a fair amount myself. Happy 
to have your help.

P.S. Does anyone know of a C2 mirror? Ward's wiki seems to be gone. :-(
