Kanban Weekly Roundup - 9/27/11

For the past seven years, David J. Anderson has frequently blogged on kanban news and events from around the world.  Due to his crazy busy traveling schedule, David’s staff will continue the communication through the “Kanban Weekly Roundup”.

News
Geek Wire’s interview with David Anderson, “How an Automotive Secret Can Make For Better Software”, talks about the kanban principles that many people associate with the production of cars.

Here’s a real life example from @Vanwynsberghea of a development team implementing Kanban. 
We like this post “How We Use Kanban in Our Development Team” because it’s written from a beginners perspective in a practical manner.
