How to set up a productive working environment for Agile teams - level 200

Ecco un post molto interessante dell'amico Jeffrey Palermo:

In Agile Software Development, there is a strong focus on collaboration.  Sending emails back and forth just doesn't cut it, and weekly meetings are enough.  Offices and cubicles can often stifle communication because there are physical barriers in the way of communication. 

My team works in a single conference room with tables grouped together in the center.  Each person has a table as a desk, but all the tables touch and form a large rectangle (all the wires go in the middle).  When a conversation is going on, even non-participants can hear, and often a non-participant can correct a misconception or challenge an assumption.  Having everyone physically together all the time helps keep momentum going.  We have 96 sq feet of white board space, but we are getting some more so that every wall is covered in whiteboard - 288 sq ft.

Joel: un conto e' il classico open space dove tutti fanno tutti (sviluppatori, commerciali, segretarie) con telefoni che suonano ogni 5 minuti, etc, etc. Un conto e' una stanza con gli sviluppatori di un team. Soprattutto se si fa pair programming non si pone il problema del rumore perche' stai interagendo col tuo compagno o con altre coppie discutendo dello stesso problema/software. Come al solito una pratica sostiene l'altra.

Secondo me dipende molto da cosa devi realizzare...
Io a volte mi isolo completamente, a volte lavoro al meglio in una stanza di 5/6 persone sullo stesso progetto... sentendo parlare altre due, correggo eventuali errori o interpretazioni sbagliate...

una cosa bella è avere a disposizione qualche stanza tranquilla da usare alla bisogna...
