When Hamilton and me gave the MonoRail talk to the Enterprise Application track, we asked how many people were .NET vs JAVA vs Ruby. The results where roughly 43%, 43% and 4%, respectively.

The interesting part was when I asked how many of the .NET guys used Web Forms, almost all of them said that they do. Then I asked how many enjoyed using Web Forms.

No one raised their hands.

It is not relevant because it is a thing of the past. Quite a few of the people that I met there, both speakers and attendees are taking agile and its practices as granted.

As in: Well, obviously this is how you build a software project, how can you do it any other way?

My company doesn't do agile development, lots of background here, and I am not going into it, and my own efforts seems both puny and diminishing values at some points, it was incredible to see people with that kind of mind set, and to know that this was basically everyone there.
