There has been a growing interest in FDD recently. Partly because Jeff De Luca is now offering certification, partly because there are now at least two knowledge base tools on the market which support it, FDD Tracker and FDD Manager, and partly because there is a growing body of corporate IT departments taking a look at agile methods but they want to have a firm grip on architecture and aren't prepared to go the whole extreme way to emergent design.

As a result of this growing demand, I've been asked to make it easier to find FDD material on this site. Apparently some other FDD sites aren't very easy to browse and discover newer material which isn't in the Palmer & Flesing book. So in response to this, I've created Channel FDD. You will find it on the RHS navigation of the home page and on any FDD article page. There are over 30 papers and blog entries featured. If you have any more suggestions as to how I can make this site more useful to FDDers around the world, please comment...
