Work on the Korean version of HWTSAM is wrapping up, and we're looking for a few more of what the editors like to call "praise quotes". These are the nice things people say about the book that either go on the back cover or on the inside pages.

If you've read the book and want to add your words to the Korean version of hwtsam, just send me email (alan dot page at microsoft dot com).

So far, the blogosphere in general has had a better experience with the book than the amazon reviewers :)

Here is a link to the latest review I found. Thanks Michael for taking the time to write this up.

It looks like (pending paper composition and acceptance) that I?ll be heading three hours south this October to present at the Pacific Northwest Software Quality Conference in Portland, OR. I?ll be presenting on ?The role of experienced testers on software quality? (or something like that).

I?m also excited that (at least) two of the bloggers I follow will also be presenting.

Marlena Compton, who has some great ideas on metrics and visualization in testing, and the Testy Redhead (who I believe won best paper last year) will also be presenting. On top of that, Elisabeth Hendrickson will be giving a keynote. I?m excited to be a part of it and think it will be a fantastic conference.
