We then reconvene in the formal meeting r oom to hear Daniel's latest and greatest.\nTalk from 6pm to 7pm\n\nTop ic:Kanban! or Sizing is Not the Problem\n\n “Our team can’t limit Work In Progress, because limiting WIP requires all work items to be o f the same size.” Heard that one before? How about, “Upfront plann ing and estimation (relative complexity sizing) are necessary to achie ve predictability”? These myths still permeate the Agile community e ven though neither could be further from the truth. This session will discuss some reasons why work item size does not matter and will intro duce some more fruitful improvements to focus on when addressing the v ery real problems of variability and predictability. For downtown mem bers,\n\n\nSEPTA is pretty straight forward from the city – the 44 b us will drop you off right in front of the building. You can pick this up from 29th Street, right in front of 30th Street Station, in additi on to several other places in the city.\n\nTransportation from the Wes tern Suburbs, most people drive.  There is a big, free parking lot.\n Someone recommended HopStop to get an estimate.\n\n\nQuestions?
