Acknowledgments

First I would like to thank Kent Beck, Ward Cunningham, and Ron Jeffries for starting the conversation around Extreme Programming. If nothing else they have managed to make software development methodologies interesting again.

As usual, the team at Addison-Wesley was extremely supportive and enthusiastic about this project: Ross Venables, Mike Hendrickson, et. al. My reviewers seemed particularly gleeful this time, and although one expressed regrets that the book is not the flame-fest material he'd hoped for, all helped me to clarify my thoughts about Extreme Programming: Alastair Handley, Andy Hunt, Dave Thomas, Greg Klafki, Jens Coldewey, Jim Highsmith, Kent Beck, Miroslav Novak, Ron Jeffries, and Rudy Wrench.
