Bonn Agile Sommerfest 2012: Retrospective

In spite of the rainy weather, we fired up the barbecue for Monday's Sommerfest, and most of the RSVP'ed showed up, so we totalled around 17 people. After eating, Thorsten Kalnin guided us through a great Kanban simulation game that you can read more about here.

BBQ tasted really well, in spite of the rain

Thanks for coming everyone, and thanks to Viaboxx for hosting us once again!

Bonn Agile Sommerfest 2012: The Kanban Pizza Game

Monday (16th of July) it's time for our annual Summer Party!

The Sommerfest will again take place at "Villa Viaboxx"

Agenda

Agile coach and speaker Thorsten Kalnin will be joining us to facilitate a fun and interesting Kanban game:

With the Kanban Pizza Game from agile42 you can find out how Kanban feels like. While common Kanban games are usually focussing only on the flow in an existing Kanban system, our new Kanban Pizza Game shows in addition how to get from an existing process to a Kanban system.

We start barbecuing, eating and drinking around 18:00-19:00, and then towards 19:30 we'll start the game.

Bonn Agile Meetup - June Recap

A rather technical subject this time: Daniel Kurka visited us to tell us about GWT-PhoneGap and mgwt (links). It was a really great presentation, and afterwards some very interesting discussions on everything from augmented reality to apps-overload at the "retrospective":

What's more is that a couple of weeks later, there were some big announcements at the Google IO conference. You can read more about the news on Daniel's blog.
