Registration to the Lean Software & Systems Conference 2011, rare Agile conference in SoCal, is open. Early bird until February 28th.
I spent the evening with David Anderson, Janice Linden-Reed, and a few other friends, discussing the management of the volunteers. We toured the Hyatt hotel in Long Beach; I can say the setup is even better than last year in Atlanta.
The speakers and program will be announced next week.
I’m already looking for the event.

Also, check out DigitalLA.net and consider joining them on Monday night at Trader Vic’s for a panel discussion. Registration is required and available on the Digital LA site.
