Cory, John, Alan, and I on a check-in meeting. Alan is getting ready to deploy and test some new changes on the developer's box (testing server). That is exciting. We also talked about some rounding errors on both PO's and invoices. At some point, you get down to splitting hairs (super small details) and have to deal with multiple decimal points, rounding error, storage and formatting. Not every business needs that much detail, but some of them really do.

Cory and Alan were talking about projects, small teams, and trying to go towards a more agile and scrum type development environment. This would involve sprints, project owners, scrum masters, small teams, user stories, common usage scenarios, daily stand-up meetings, fixing road blocks, and recap and discovery meetings. Good conversation. Alan was mostly leading the charge. Cory is excited to try this different approach.

It's ok if the roles switch around a little bit from sprint to sprint. It will make it more fun. I was drawing illustrations while Alan was explaining things. I'm not a master, but I understand the basics in the flow and concepts of the agile and scrum methodologies. Eventually we got into talking about teams and who could do what and what strengths and weaknesses do each team member have. Alan was going to do some research and report back to us with some more information.

John reported in on the discount engine remake project. He gave us a small demo of what he is working on. Cory brought up year end payroll stuff and we had a conversation about that project. We will most likely get started there in the next couple of weeks. We are approaching year end already (crazy how time flies).
