Globally Distributed Development
Welcome to the second issue of the Agile Journal. This month, we explore the many challenges Agile teams face in running globally distributed development projects.
Globally distributed development can include all/any of the following:
- Teams with developers, testers, users and/or other team members working at more than one location.
- Teams engaging with third-party partners -consultants, vendors, even customers - to deliver business applications.
- Teams that must incorporate a number of different styles (cultural, technical, management, etc.) across their distributed locations.

Impact of Open Source on Application Development
 How is it that the geeky, non-traditional world of open source software is having such a tremendous impact on traditional IT organizations? Development teams, and Agile projects in particular, are increasingly looking to the open source community for tools, application components, best practices and even organizational models for software projects. Of all of the influences in the industry, the advent of open source software is by far the most significant that we've seen in many years.
