18Jun With the increased interest in agile development these days, it’s good to keep tabs on what the industry is doing in terms of the adoption and use of agile practices. For the past 2 years, Version One has conducted a “State of Agile Development Survey”. Now, they are conducting their 3rd Annual Survey to gauge the adoption level and value of agile practices. It should take less than 10 minutes to complete. And, as a bonus this year, they will be drawing 3 prizes from the respondent pool: a $750 and two $250 gift certificates to Amazon.com. The survey is completely anonymous and the results will be made publicly available. If you’re interested in taking the survey or want more details, visit Version One’s Survey page here.
