Editor's Notes

  1. http://www.meetup.com/GOTO-Nights-Amsterdam/events/228918132/
  2. We believe in the need to shape elegant and adaptive IT solutions to enable bol.com to achieve their ambitions, today and tomorrow.
  3. “druk” om snelheid te houden Innovatie te blijven doen
  4. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Werner_Vogels No longer able to explain _all_ changes in one release; Changes of one team interfered with others; Ownership Speed: slows down … Where to start???
