		<description><![CDATA[Recently, there has been several blog posts discussing what should and should not be done when building an EA practice.  I thought I would review how we built our EA practice in our higher education organization and compare it to some of the other approaches.  I have yet to see one definintive approach for all <a href='http://leodesousa.ca/2009/11/building-an-ea-practice-what-is-your-process/'>[...]</a>]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[This morning Jon Ayre (@EnterprisingA) tweeted: #EAMantra (11) Failing to deliver perfection is not a crime. Failing to deliver is. Something I totally agree with, especially if you have been following my blog and the theme of building an EA practice that delivers value using a virtual team. Tyler Gooch (@tylergooch) then sent a response <a href='http://leodesousa.ca/2009/11/the-cult-of-the-done-manifesto-perfect-is-not-the-goal/'>[...]</a>]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[JP Rangaswami wrote an interesting post titled Mother of Invention. In it he discusses, Frank Zappa and piracy and as usual, he expands my understanding on this contentious topic. Thank you JP! What really caught my eye was JP&#8217;s reference to Kevin Kelly&#8217;s article Better than Free. Kevin talks about the Internet being a super-distribution system <a href='http://leodesousa.ca/2009/06/will-integrating-generative-attributes-help-ea-adoption/'>[...]</a>]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[JP Rangaswami posted an interesting entry on Build versus Buy versus Opensource.  In it he states: &#8220;And the way I think of it is this: For common problems use Opensource. For rare problems use Buy. For unique problems use Build. &#8221; Not bad but I really think he missed a fundamental part of this discussion.  <a href='http://leodesousa.ca/2007/08/reuse-is-missing/'>[...]</a>]]></description>
