What's important about XP

Extreme Programming can be a radical and threating changes for anyone, even managment! ONLamp.com: Five Lessons You Should Learn from Extreme Programming [Jul. 31, 2003] focus's more on the Why before mentioning the What (or even the WHT!)
  1. Code for Maintainability
  2. Know Your Status
  3. Communicate Early and Often
  4. Do Things That Matter
  5. Fix Your Most Important Problem First
Ask your Boss if these 5 things are important. When she agrees, then together look for ways to get there. XP by stealth! Hmm.. Then only question is when do you make your Boss aware of Extreme Programing (or Agile Development, if you prefer)?
