Jim Highsmith held a meeting about Agile Project Management at ADC. The meeting decided to name itself the "Dead Fish Society".
This is a great name and signifies Agile Project Management moving from the innovator's to early adoptors. It is a name that inspires people to join.
So far, the group has decided on a name, and to get together for a day and a half in Chicago on October. If you are an Agile Project Manager who wants more details, let me know and I will put you in touch with the "Dead Fish Society". Oh yeas, and Pollyanna has registered the URL for the Agile Alliance.
The society was named after the keynote speech given by Tim Lister at ADC. Tim refered to a "dead fish" on a project. Something that everyone could smell but no one spoke about until it was too late.
