Okay well it looks like they've put even more emphasis on pair programming, which Kanban certainly doesn't require, and... I'm not gonna advocate for that part.

- alasdair_ 7y agoPair programming all the time comes from XP. Almost no one does it, not even Kent Beck. In fact, the only place that I know of that tried "real" eXtreme Programming was the Chrysler Compensation project, which ultimately failed. I'd be amazed that Pivotal actually does pair programming all the time, except that they are in the business of selling tools to facilitate exactly this process.
- UK-Al05 7y agoI've been in tons of agile places that do pair programming.
- jacques_chester 7y agoMany Pivotal teams do full time pair programming. Many don't. Pivotal Labs is pretty close to 100% because of its teaching role. Large parts of R&D practice 100% as a default with many local variations. Other parts of R&D don't practice anything resembling pairing. All of this is presumably going to be in flux, now that the acquisition by VMware is complete.
