Title: Michael Eaton presents 'Improving Our Craft'

A Discussion on Software Estimation How are your software estimation skills? If your answer was "dude, I'm terrible at estimation", you're not alone. Being able to accurately estimate software is a skill every developer should have but research and statistics show it's a skill few actually possess. In this session, we'll talk about why we have so much trouble with this key skill and then discuss some strategies for improving our software estimation chops.
