		<description><![CDATA[There are many things that I look at when I see a demo, one of thing that fascinates me are demo smells. These are automatic actions that developers do when the demo doesn’t quite go well that underlay conceptual problems.
For example when seeing a demo at the end of an iteration, does the developer have [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[During the Typemock Partnership Academy Panel in Oslo, I had a very strange feeling coming from Uncle Bob, when asked “what is the state of unit testing” that was the feeling of acceptance, but I felt a tingle of consent perhaps a bite of giving in. 
     “We are on track, [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Roy gave me a copy of “The Cash Machine” Using the ToC for Sales Management. It is a good read, and it reminded me of the principals I learnt several years ago, although this book had a nice twist, and applied the ToC on a human process instead of the normal production line.

		<description><![CDATA[Jason Yip has a great post: Retrospectives should not be about sharing pain
Retrospectives should not be about sharing pain and venting.     Retrospectives should be about getting better.

So true.
How do we make sure that we are a problem solving culture and not a complaining one? We use the clearing technique. Every problem [...]]]></description>

Although Scott Bellware seems to be angry about the state of things, I am actually seeing great progress in our profession, and the ALT.NET is one of them.
To the point I must agree with him about the following:

		<description><![CDATA[In TechEd 2008 David Platt interviewed Roy about the future of&#160; TDD. You should really view the Tech-Talk as Dave is really funny, although he does miss the number of possible TLA&#8217;s (which he recursively defines as a TLA = Three Letter Acronym) by 300.
About 5 minutes into the session David asks a key question: [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[The question of what exactly is a unit test, is one that keeps on plaguing us as a community. I have heard many developers say &#8220;oh, no need to test that &#8211; its an integration test&#8221;.
