Cory Foy<\/a>\u00a0made an interesting comment today on the\u00a0XP mailing list. I\u2019ll quote the part which I found interesting:<\/p>\n

\u201d My theory is that while we supposedly \u201cCrossed the Chasm<\/a>\u201d from\u00a0Early Adopters to Early Majority<\/a>\u00a0in the Agile world (referencing emails from about a year ago), we are now trying to cross a second chasm – that between Early Majority and Late Majority.\u201d<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

While I respect Cory immensely, my experience with moderating and hosting\u00a0XPSD<\/a>\u00a0suggests we have a long way to go as a community before we approach the Late Majority. The demographic that comes to XPSD are in their mid-30\u2019s to mid-40\u2019s (of course, we have younger and older present) who generally work in small teams or at small companies. We mostly have technical people come to our meetings each month with the majority of folks being people who write code for a living.<\/p>\n

If we were approaching the Late Majority, then I would expect to be seeing the crowd at XPSD getting a little grayer (we\u00a0all<\/strong>\u00a0are getting a little grayer these days, but that is beside the point) and coming from the more conservative organizations and companies – defense contractors, the big biotechs and financial companies. I would also expect to be seeing more of the manager types and supplementary roles associated with software development – the testers, SCM and tech writers. I\u2019d also expect to see a spike, or an increasing trend, in the number of people signing up on our\u00a0mailing list.<\/p>\n

While I wish it were true all these things were happening, I am not seeing it in San Diego. I think as a community, we are still just beginning to penetrate the Early Majority.<\/p>\n

[Update – Aug 13]\u00a0<\/strong>Seems like I am not the only one who questions Cory\u2019s (and Scott Ambler\u2019s) assertions that Agile has crossed into the Late Majority –\u00a0Dave Nicolete\u00a0is skeptical as well (here\u00a0and\u00a0here).\u00a0 I agree with his choice of words that Agile is still seen as an \u201cexperimental\u201d or \u201calternative\u201d way to develop software.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
