What a great event.  Thanks Brad! This is definitely the largest group coding event I've attended.  Once again I was blown away by how easily the group fell into "pairing" with the leader.   We got stuck on a simple math problem, it was pretty funny since I'm pretty sure if we had 30 7th graders we would have gotten past it faster than with 30 software professionals.  Over and over again we questioned and then simplified what we were doing, it was probably the best illustration of pairing and TDD Brad could have come up with.  The one thing this event continues to highlight is that too many in our area have not adopted Test Driven Development and from what we heard over and over again last night, managers are not convinced that agile is anything but a fad.  We'll be working hard this summer to change some minds.
