Reading Blog - Extreme Programming Installed Ch19 - 21

Summary:
Ch 19
The chapter discusses unexpected changes that may arise when developing. This may make tasks take longer than expected. It is always important to adjust deadline and charts to make way for the unexpected changes. having leeway for adjustment is always good.

Ch 20
It is important to have stories get completed to the end. It is better to focus on a single story to completion opposed to having several almost completed stories. Also, you must check on members to see their progress on their stories.

Ch 21
When releasing, it is best to check up on your stories and see how much of them have been completed.  The most valuable stories should always be put at the top of the to do list. This will drive better releases.




Discussion:
The chapters are finally slowly starting to focus more on the release. I found these chapter more informative than previous ones.
