Erik chose XP, as the preferred process, in a project to create a cross-industrial center of excellence in early 2000. Erik got exposed to XP principles fairly early through the design patterns community and some people at Lund University that knew Kent Beck, Ward Cunningham et al.
Erik is very active in both the regional SPIN-SYD? for the south of Sweden and the national SPIN-SWEDEN?. He invests hundreds of hours annually pro bono in SPIN work. Erik has initiated international exchanges e g with SPIN in Bangalore, India. Erik currently acts as coach to several XP-teams working with product oriented software development. The teams has shipping products today.
The slogan "Put a SPIN on XP!" is part of a long-term program to join the forces of "the CMM people" aka the process improvement community and "the XP people" aka the agile movement. Suggested reading: "Promoting change among your peers"[1] or "SPIN: professional growth of individuals and organizations through peer exchanges" presented at the IEEE ECBS02? conference earlier this year.
