But, no excuses – my quest to grasp the academic history of agile delivery is taking steps forward, with my digging into DSDM. I’ve decided to focus on DSDM due to its UK-centricity, which I feel will have the greatest short term impact. I’ll get to SCRUM, XP, RUP, et al when i get to them.

I started the quest ages ago and have progressed it, but more in practice than in reading. Now’s the time for the reading to pick up again…

This relates to a post i made about security as a sense of stability at work.

My rough summary: Enjoy your work, feel secure, or make a change! Don’t accept any less!
