    Hi Peter, for me it runs fine. Try moving the time slider to just after 50 minutes so you can continue watching it.

    Can we get Power Point Slide copies also? Some of the slides overlap due to animation i think.

    We are attempting to adopt a Kanban/lean approach instead of having iterations of fixed length. This presentation is full of gems, jewels, and ideas that we can try and use to make our processes better. Thanks to David and to InfoQ for making this available!
