Article by Helen Varley Jamieson.

In June 2010 Helen went to Madrid for the Eclectic Tech Carnival (/ETC) 
website workweek - On a 'sprint', a collective effort of five women 
coming together for a week to rebuild the group's website, physically & 
remotely.

Teams respond to the unpredictability of building software through 
incremental, iterative work cadences, known as sprints. Sprint 
methodology, a concept first met in Agile software development, but one 
that is being increasingly applied as a successful creative 
collaboration methodology. During the workweek Helen blogged about the 
process and this article is an assemblage of these posts.

The new Eclectic Tech Carnival's (Drupal-based) web site is now live:
