Take Part in 3rd Annual 'State of Agile Development' Survey
It is that time of year again - The 3rd Annual 'State of Agile Development' Survey has now been launched with results to be released August 4th at Agile 2008 in Toronto.
This is not a vendor or tool survey, it is meant as a global survey on the general state of Agile development (hence the catchy name).
Last year the survey received 1,700 completed surveys from 71 countries. The results from past surveys have been written up in publications ranging from CIO Magazine to InfoQ to SDTimes and the Agile Journal. The results are also e-mailed directly to participants.
Learn more and take the survey at: http://surveys.versionone.com/akira/TakeSurvey?id=982046&ext_ref=501
It should take less than 10 minutes to complete and your participation is greatly appreciated.
What do you get for participating? By contributing and sharing data anonymously, you will help create the largest data collection on the value of Agile development practices and have direct access to the aggregated results. As sponsor, VersionOne is also giving away participation prizes consisting of 3 Amazon.com gift certificates totaling $1,250.00.
