Release 8.1: Just some news...

Have not been busy like this for a long time!!!

I have recenlty decided to give up the "security" of my job to start building value for myself: yep, working for me has changed my life!

In a bit more than a month I have:

- gone to America (Boston is a great city by the way), utilised eXtreme Analysis successfully again, run 1 iteration with the teams and come back to the UK
- talked about eXtreme Analaysis at the Agile Business conference held in London last month, which generated a lot of interest
- started working with a big UK financial institution
- gone to Ireland with a lot to do for the customer and very little time to do it ;-) I have in fact just arrived today for this and will be here for another week.
- lined up additional work until the end of the year, but looking for more!
- became a COO!!!

Fantastic feeling! but feeling tired already...

I thought being on the roads and having hotel time would free up some time for me to work on this blog, but it has not been the case. Still, I will try and post a bit more often than the past month.
