Meeting Topic: Fundamental Rules for Software Productivity

What would appear on your list of fundamental rules for software productivity? What would top your list? How would you defend your answers?  Our own Mark Randolph has been invited to speak at the USDA on that topic and has asked for our help in sharpening his wits. Mark's list is available via the Google Agile KC Group and will be discussed on the 2nd.
Please! Come argue with him!


Mark Randolph currently works for the Prince of Wales Tribal Enterprise Consortium (POWTEC) and is assigned at the United States Department of Agriculture (USDA) as a Senior IT Specialist where he actively advocates for
the adoption of Agile Programming methods. Mark has been a Certified ScrumMaster for 3 years. On his last job, Mark was responsible for piloting Scrum (an Agile Programming method), arranged training for 12 team leads,
and organized and ran 7 Scrum teams, not all of which were successful (a humbling and instructive experience). Mark has also published articles on the Scrum Alliance web site.

This will be a dinner meeting, buffet style.  The Pizza Shoppe has a private dining room that we can use, and also will allow individuals to pay for the pizza buffet on separate tickets.  The cost of the buffet is $8.00 plus drinks and gratuity.
