Do You XP?
November 8, 2009 · 2 Comments
I asked a couple of questions on the extreme programming mailing list recently to see how people dealt with distributed teams (and also to gauge feelings on electronic collaboration versus face-to-face, pens-and-cards collaboration).
William Pietri posted a link to a page about his team's project room that I think makes interesting reading, particularly for folks who are skeptical about XP.
William Pietri's XP Team Room
He goes into enough detail of the XP process for folks to get a real feel of how his project runs without getting bogged down in theory.
I'll be interested to hear what non-XP people think of such a work environment?

Two desks, two computers = four XP programmers.
For a non-XP setup with four programmers you wouldn't be pair programming so you'd need four desks and four computers I guess.
Two questions:
What else would you change for a non-XP team?
Would you want to do XP based on an environment like this? (and if not, why not?)
