Group Information

Group Information
This is a volunteer run, non-profit organization which aims to provide a community for individuals involved in agile software development.
This group aims to provide an environment where you can exchange ideas and meet with individuals involved in agile community. The AgilePhilly listserv has all meeting announcements and local Agile Discussions.
Moderation Policy
To promote the flow of free information, we restrict advertisements for job offers, paid events, surveys, and commercial advertising--these may only appear on our Job Listings and Local Events and Announcements pages.
Moderators are in place not to guarantee high standards (which tend to be subjective) but to prevent low standards (which can usually be expressed more objectively). In that regard, posts should generally be let through unless they are clearly either:
1. Not relevant to the group
2. Not consistent with the publicly stated standards or guidelines for the group (listed above)
