Location: Building 23, Moffett Field CA

Start Date/Time: 11.30.05, 6:00PM
End Date/Time: 11.30.05, 8:30PM

XP focuses on building a software product; CMM(I) focuses on organizational transformation for improving the capability of organizations that build software products. While the objectives are different, they are compatible.

Extreme Programming is characterized as a disciplined process that incorporates good engineer and management practices that are consistent with the requirements of process management standards such as Capability Maturity Model (Integration), albeit with "extreme" implementations tailored to a specific kind of environment.
