Blog and PodCast Notes:
I am behind in posting new content to the blog however vacations and other distractions are getting back under control. I have a few announcements.
The first is I have begun to plan a software process and measurement ‘unconference’ that will at least be broadcast as a podcast and if it can be swung . . .be hosted as a Second Life Conference then rebroadcast as a podcast. The conference will feature eight presentations over two days (4.5 hours per day). I need a few good people to help as a conference committee . . .if interested please send me an email at spamcastinfo@gmail.com.
The second announcement is that I will become the president of the International Function Point Users Group in November. I approach most activities in a very transparent, wide open manner (even more transparent since my interview with Kent Beck for the Software Process and Measurement Cast: SPaMCAST – release date details soon). It is my intent to have a blog that I update twice monthly or at least until I am told I can not do so. I will post the details and URL in the near future. If you have topics you would like me to address please feel free to make suggestions.
Finally, I would like you to help nominate the Software Process and Measurement Cast: SPaMCAST as the best podcast in the “Technology / Science Music” category. Directions are as follows:
