Covers the subject matter at the surface but quickly
goes into specific details from a Java development platform perspective. Perhaps too deep into this perspective that can leave those who just want to understand Agile from an "Engineering" perspective out.
So this tends to be very subjective and specific to Java development. So if your primary platform is Java, this serious of videos will at least introduce you to methods and tools that can be looked at and used.
So if you are looking for some ideas on the Java platform this might be ideal for you where if you are working on other platforms...you could kind of loose sight on the subject.

This video requires patience to watch as it is about principles and deeper patterns of behavior and thought used in iterative development methodologies.
Take the time to absorb it and man .... it is good! Great visualization a of abstract concepts used in agile methodologies and lots of solid, well thought out explanations of practices and principles that make agile methodologies worthwhile.
I've been doing iterative development for years and found this extremely informative but I would recommend this to ANYONE who wants to learn about iterative development or wants information that can help justify why a team or teams should use agile development practices.
Neil also is not an evangelist - all he says is backed up by reasoned thought and never is there anything left to faith or just do it because :)

not much to say about a video that doesn't have much to say.
