In the summer of 2006 in Finland at XP 2006 Ahmed El shamy and I ran a workshop to gather experience from agile practitioners. We wanted to take what we learned from ChiliPLoP 2006 and expand it. Over forty five people showed up, worked hard, and shared their experiences in agile practice adoption. We focused on business values, smells addressed, and the agile practices that addressed those smells.

The results led to an article in the fall 2006 issue of Agile Development published by the agile alliance.
