Yesterday, Andy Lester came to Gr.PM and gave a revised version of his talk Automated Testing of Large Projects in Perl. It was a blast.
That morning, the GR.PM steering comittee met with Andy for Breakfast. Speaking of CMM, Andy replied "Well, let me ask you this: How much are you Into Extreme Programming?"
Al Tobey replied "Well ... we've got Matt."
Considering the person it came from, I consider this one of the greater compliments I have ever received as a programmer. Thanks, Al.
