Working title: 'OUR department is special; everyone else is stupid'
Notes from the field:
Enterprise software development has its moments, no doubt. But I contend that development for the academic enterprise is one of the more challenging undertakings. At a university ROI and efficiency are fighting words to be uttered only in secret, the chain of command is often murky. Large groups of users can easily be described as anarchistic on a variety of issues, including software choice and organizational processes.
For a couple of years now I have been working with, listening to, and serving academic users of all types: from tech-savvy engineering students to set-in-their-ways historians. What unites them? The logo on our letterhead and their common, but contradictory convictions:
(1) that they speak for all users when they voice an opinion, and
(2) that their needs and routines are unique.
Increasingly, I also hear that 'they' — that would be everyone else — are 'idiots', and in general 'the problem with everything'. This all makes for some interesting times. It is also why well-received changes are something to be savored.
NTNU is by no means unique. The temperament and power structures of the academic arena have been remarked upon before, even formulated as a Law. Sayre's Law: "Academic politics is the most vicious and bitter form of politics, because the stakes are so low."
Techies will tell you that platform discussions are notoriously religious, anywhere — but they have nothing on questions of what color something should be or data ownership. (grin here)

In project management, a timebox is a period of time in which to accomplish some task. The end date is set in stone and may not be changed. If the team exceeds the date, the work is considered a failure and is cancelled or rescheduled. Some timeboxes allow the team to adjust the scope of the task in order to meet the deadline.
Timeboxes are used as a form of risk management for tasks that easily run over their deadlines. Timeboxes are commonly used in agile software development to manage software development risk. In agile development, the team is repeatedly tasked with producing a releasable improvement to software, timeboxed to a specific number of weeks.
When considering the traditional triple constraints of Project management (time, cost and scope) the time and cost constraints are fixed in this type of project contracting, but the scope (requirements) constraint is not. Therefore, timeboxing is the favorable type of contracting for projects in which the deadline is the most critical aspect and when not all requirements are completely specified upfront. A lack of detailed specifications typically is the result of a lack of time, or the lack of knowledge of the desired end result (solution). In many types of projects, and especially in software engineering, analyzing and defining all requirements and specifications before the start of the realization phase is impossible.
The advantages of timeboxing over working with more traditional methods - in which there is a need to specify all details and features upfront - are that work can be started on the actual solution, or product, sooner, because less requirements and specifications gathering is necessary upfront. There is also a better structure for allowing for new insights that are developed during the project to be reflected in the end result.
This goes hand-in-hand with MoSCoW prioritization of deliverables. Time Boxing is a core element of the rapid application development software development process and of DSDM.
Time boxing and agile software development techniques go hand-in-hand: With time boxing regular delivery of working software is ensured, and agile software development ensures the delivery of the highest priority value as defined by the stakeholders.
Cal is well known for advocating the PragProgrammer's one button deploy pattern. Now that we're exposing our deploys on code.flickr.com (look at the footer), I thought people might want some clarification on how it works.
When we say "one button", we actually mean a button. And this is that button.

The key for Post-its that we use on our scrum board.
Orange is for bugs in production that are found by customers or support.
Green is for bugs that QA or developers find in features developed in a previous sprint for this release.
Miscellaneous tasks are on Bag Of Holding Boysenberry.
Blog posts are on Bloggers Like Green Tea Green.

The key for stories on our scrum board. The story card features the Jira case number, the title, a short description, the original story size, the new size we decide upon after finishing the story, developers working on the story, and the story owner.
Each task has a description, the QA engineer's initials in the lower left, and the developer's initials in the lower right. A QA only task has the bottom right snipped off, making it clear that the task itself involves no code change.

This pic was taken at CukeUp! 2014, and is of Matt Wynne giving a talk on The Post BDD Team. BDD might be software development nirvana, Matt explained.... But what lies beyond? What happens when a team get really, really good at BDD? Can you get so good you don't need it anymore? You can find out by watching this SkillsCast recording (film, code, slides) of Matt's talk here: skillsmatter.com/skillscasts/4984-post-bdd-team
PS, the SkillsCast recording is only available to Skills Matter members, but their membership is free and signing up takes only a few seconds...(Matt's talk is definitely worth it!).
CukeUp! 2014 is a fast-paced conference co-organised by Skills Matter and Cucumber Limited - the company behind Cucumber. Together, we've been assembling the community since 2011 for this intense conference - this year we've added a day of workshops to allow you explore topics in their entirety.
You can find skills casts recordings (film, code, slides) of all talks held at CukeUp! here: skillsmatter.com/conferences/1816-cukeup-1816#program

El Raval es un barrio dinámico que ofrece exposiciones vanguardistas en el Museo de Arte Contemporáneo de Barcelona (MACBA) y el contiguo Centro de Cultura Contemporánea de Barcelona (CCCB). Los bares bohemios, las tiendas de diseño a la última y el arte callejero inundan los aledaños. En el mercado de La Boquería, situado en Las Ramblas, se vende marisco, vino y tapas. Cafeterías informales se suceden en la Rambla del Raval. El Museo Marítimo expone réplicas de embarcaciones en unos astilleros medievales.
