Call for Presentations: Agile 2008

Mitch has posted the Call for Presentations for Agile 2008 in Toronto next summer.

I went to Agile 2006, mostly because I was presenting (and there, mostly because Mitch came in at the 11th hour and shepherded the process along). While I sincerely enjoyed presenting, many of us lamented that something seemed to be missing from the conference. Peter summed it up best by saying that the soul -- the Zen -- of agility seemed to be missing. Everybody was talking about the mechanics, but nobody was talking about the organics.

I didn't go to Agile 2007, partly because of that and partly because I was "saving" up my big trip for the PDC that never materialized. I'm thinking about trying to create a talk about agile philosophy for this year, but I'm not quite sure what I want to say. This blog post by Jonathan Edwards about Beautiful Code has been stewing in my brain for several months now...
