    (Huge thanks to Antone Heyward for the answer to this problem.) One of the things I love about Hyper-V 2012 is that you can easily move Hyper-v virtual machines (guests) between Hyper-V hosts using the Hyper-V Manager app.  Sure, in previous versions of Hyper-V you could do an Export, Copy, and Import to move VMs…

  • Slides & Video from “Agile Under a Waterfall” talk at ALM Summit 2013

    I finished up presenting at the 2013 ALM Summit a little while ago where I presented “Agile Under a Waterfall.”  Agile Under a Waterfall It would be so easy if everyone at our companies just used Scrum — or at least Agile. No one would lean on the team for dates and deadlines, and everyone…
