There’s a lot of talk about transformation and some metrics around what we are lacking and need to do better. Do we also know what we do well and the good things about our work processes and environment that we want to keep? I’m concerned that if we don’t diagram this as a spectrum we risk running over those good things that we do in the course of transforming.

Forking a repository allows you to freely experiment with changes without affecting the original project. Most commonly,  forks  are used to either propose changes to someone else's project or to use someone else's project as a starting point for your own idea. Now get a 'remote' local copy of the fork you must have git installed comes pre-installed on later osx versions can switch to most current with homebrew - $brew install git $ github_user= ' <my-github-username> ' $ cd " $( brew --repository ) ...

read the glob docs! And never forget the sacrafice that glob is making for you.

extglob  changes the way certain characters are parsed. It is necessary to have a newline (not just a semicolon) between  shopt -s extglob  and any subsequent commands to use it. You cannot enable extended globs inside a  group command  that uses them, because the entire block is parsed before the  shopt  is  evaluated .  Note that the typical  function  body  is  a  group command . An unpleasant workaround could be to use a  subshell command list  as the function body. Therefore, if you use this option in a script, it is best put right under the shebang line. Toggle line numbers 1 #!/usr/bin/env bash 2 shopt -s extglob # and others, such as nullglob dotglob 3

Velocity and Burn Rate Budget

This is a great summary of where to get to in how you budget projects. http://www.agileadvice.com/2011/02/04/agilemanagement/calculating-a-budget-for-an-agile-project-in-six-easy-steps/ Most importantly, Using the definition of “done” add pre- and post- Iteration budgets Every agile team is supposed to be “ cross-functional ” but in reality, there are limits to this.  For example, in most software project environments, teams do not include full-time lawyers.  This limited cross-functionality determines what the team is capable of delivering in each cycle – anything outside the team’s expertise is usually done as either pre-work or after the iterations (cycles) are finished.  Sometimes, this work can be done concurrently with the team.  In order to understand this work, it is often valuable to draw an organization-wide  value stream map  for project delivery.  This map will show you the proportion of time spent for each type of work in the proje...
