http://jeffsutherland.com/scrum/2006/06/distributed-scrum-agile-project.html

		<description><![CDATA[Laura Quinn has written the stories of three different non-profit organizations (NPOs) applying different technology to improve their collaboration.
It&#8217;s good to be reminded that technology adoption and culture change don&#8217;t happen overnight:

That&#8217;s &#8220;Agile&#8221; with a capital &#8220;A&#8221;, which is immediately apparent when you tour the product and see index cards arranged on the web page.

2. Fill in fields on the basic tab.

(Or &#8220;colocated&#8221;, if you prefer. Or even &#8220;collocated&#8221;.)
The phrase &#8220;100 co-located developers&#8221; came up in conversation the other day.
