    I look forward to reading more of your work.

    Hey, John… I read a lot of stuff on agile, Scrum and KanBan.. and 90% of it is from the perspective of the scrummaster or team lead; which means 90% of it is nice to know but is one-sided. Hearing what works and what doesn’t work from a developer’s perspective is REALLY important to me, so your site has been quite illuminating for me. I am relatively new to scrum, less than 2 years. It has made a huge difference where I work, but I also see some pitfalls that you’ve nicely addressed. I’m looking forward to reading the wealth of information that you’ve published and look forward to future posts
