    Version Control for Multiple Agile Teams

    When several agile development teams work on the same codebase, how do we minimize chaos, and ensure there's a clean, releasable version at the end of every iteration?

    In this article, Steve Vinoski explains how to build RESTful Web services using the Erlang programming language and the Yaws web server.
