Agile Manifesto Signatories

Independent Signatories of
The Manifesto for Agile Software Development

We are uncovering better ways of developing software by doing it and helping others do it. Through this work we have come to value:

Individuals and interactions over processes and tools
Working software over comprehensive documentation
Customer collaboration over contract negotiation
Responding to change over following a plan

That is, while there is value in the items on the right, we value the items on the left more.

Geetha Sriram: Agile Methodology is great to have around! More so with a process wrap!
Elena Malysheva.
Mirko Meier: (http://www.mirkom.net)
Chris Russell.
Peder Andersson.
Anıl Çalışkan: (BankPozitif)
Danny Alcantara.
Ohad Barzilay: (Web Page at Tel Aviv University)
Juan Jose Zapico: (ZapCase) "As for the future, your task is not to foresee it, but to enable it." (Antoine de Saint-Exupery)
Shankar S C: Cheers to the Agile Methdology..
Claudio.
Jonathan Starr: (http://www.geekswithblogs.net/starr)
Jamie Owen: (http://www.jamieowen.info) I see a terrific parallel: The characteristics of the relationship between an agile development team and the customers and users is much the same as those of an agile instructor and his/her responsibility toward a classroom of students.
José Gomes Jr..
Abhijeet Basu: I have studied agile development up close and personal. Though I am a Quality Analyst and most of the time an evangelist for the PDCA cycle, I believe agile gives a definitive edge in times of competetive development by increasing delivery capabilities, giving ownership to the delivery teams, helping the customer edge over competition in a very short span of time and by respecting a continual change of business requirements from the customer. Whoever said that agile is against documentation and processes has not seen the beauty, simplicity and effectiveness of controlled chaos.
Dean Cornish: (http://deancornish.blogspot.com) I support the Agile Manifesto in its heart and soul, and believe very seriously that Agility in software development is the future. I endeavour, everyday to increase communication, to deliver value back to my customers as frequently as possible and involve them through every step of the way. Dean
Guobiao Bill Li: (UPerform Consulting Group)
Ace Villarica.
Anil Kumar P: Agile's strength lies in welcoming requirement changes which is very practical in today's environment.
John Schult.
Nina Niskanen. Rajitha Dissanayake: (Virtusa)
Taylor Tyng: (Wiredrive) For me, agile means sanity and a way of fusing together an amazing group of talent to give them the ability to affect change. After 10 years of riding the waterfall, I'm feeling happier and more focused than ever before.
Raja Sekhar: we are following the agile test methodologies, and we observe the very good response from our clients and also we are modifying our product quickly and efficiently with this proces, The main advantage of this is At regular intervals, the team reflects on how to become more effective, then tunes and adjusts
gurmeet singh: (JKT) I have been a part of a agile team for last 2.5 years. Really pleased with being agile. It is the next logical extension to the idea of delivering value.
Nancy Brito: (Associação Nacional das Farmácias) I support the agile manifesto! It is the first time I feel confortable delivering software solutions by accepting change with a smile.
Jeff Sage: //signed//
Jorge Ortega: (Grupo Nacion) Greetings from Costa Rica. Home of quality web developers.
Antônio Castro Jr: Because we´re not robots
Carlton Ramsey: (Ramsey Interactive) Relax, simplify and listen. A lives journey begin with but a single step. The next great software begins with but a single line of code. Be true to the software and it will be true to you.
Justin Hersh: (Amorpha Group)
João Gomes: (mainSystems, Lda) This is the only way to go, my company adopted this methodology from the first day.
Gonzalo Alvarez Flores: (http://www.gonzaloaf.net)
Bill Forsyth: For 23 years I've done all manner of development and systems integration, and have been in just about every role except QA, including developer, architect, manager, senior manager, solutions consulting, and more. Currently I'm primarily in the role of senior software designer/architect. I'm also an award winning composer, arranger, and producer. Agile principles might be called "minimalism" for software design -- a creative act. Minimalism and Agile are where it's at.
William Murphy.
Richard Mason. Arno Schneider: (Bermi Labs) We strongly believe in agile web development and work together with clients which feel in good hands with our principles and trust our professional attitude.
Kegin G. Coleman: (The Technolytics Institute) Agile is the best way to rapidly deliver demonstrable results and reduce risks on information technology projects.
Dhaval Nagar: (Essar IT Ltd.) I am a developer and learning Agile principles and extreme programming. This is the most beautiful way to be stable as well as dynamic with today's frequently changing software demands. The very important factor is love is each principle has something to learn whether she is a developer, a quality analyst or a project manager.
José Renato.
Antonio Carlos Silveira: (Yahoo!)
Jonathan Soeder: (Soederpop)
Sukdeb Ganguli: (HCL Technologies) With the changing business needs of the customer this can be an excellent way of delivering. May be one of the best approaches, for smaller proejcts (less than 30 Man month) and for customers with whom yo already have a long term relationship.
william collier: (http://drwilliam collier.blogspot.com)
Zaffer Khan: (ISCO) Agile Software Development surely helps companies (from CMM Level 1 or none), to build a foundation level so as to define their Software Developments and refine it by interative improvements.
Jin Chun.
Jimmy Zhao: (HP-OSLO) I haven't found a way to successfully execute a project by using Agile, but from my historic experiences, I did benefit from XP, TDD, FDD and Scrum. I'm learning and wish to share my ideas with all Agile fans.
Arrie van der Dussen: (Kaizania) Agile and SCRUM has opened up a world to me I never knew existed! I always knew there was a more common-sense way off approaching projects, and there it was, all packaged and with a huge following to produce combined success! 5 years of Agile and SCRUM and still going strong evangelizing and consulting and therefore sharing my passion and Agile success with others! Agile and SCRUM put the quality of delivery and the customer first again!
FU YI: (KTH) Agile Software development is the way change the software world
