Voting was close in the race for this week's Art of Agile Development excerpt, with a three-way tie that included Real Customer Involvement and Coding Standards, but Ubiquitous Language won out in the end.

In other book-related news, Diana Larsen and I are offering training courses based on my book in October. This is the third year we've offered the courses and they've always gotten a positive reception. (Free with your purchase: no bullshit certifications.)

Next week's excerpt is from the Releasing chapter and the poll is still open at the time of this writing. The following week brings us to the Planning chapter. Which practice should I put online first?

Poll closed.

And here are the results of the poll for this week's excerpt:

• Real Customer Involvement - 24%
• Ubiquitous Language - 32%
• Stand-Up Meetings - 8%
• Coding Standards - 24%
• Iteration Demo - 8%
• Reporting - 4%
