It's 35 below in Alaska today. Brrrrr!
U of Alaska - getting traction with Kanban board. Still working internally, hoping to involve users eventually. Business users serving as QA.
MNSCU - Business analysts serving as proxy for end users, works OK - seems to be best solution given the wide customer base - different types of schools, different processes. Have a range of programmer analysts, just business analyts, just programmers.
