# Danko On Agile and the Agile Israel Community

By Roy Osherove July 9, 2007 In [Agile](https://osherove.com/blog/category/agile), [Agile Israel News](https://osherove.com/blog/category/agile-israel-news), [Community](https://osherove.com/blog/category/community), [Community News](https://osherove.com/blog/category/community-news)

**Historical article** · Originally published July 9, 2007; technical details may be outdated.

It was lovely watching [Danko](http://agileisrael.org/blogs/danko) (Danny Kovatch) speak at the [ALM user group](http://www.microsoft.com/israel/communities/usergroups/alm.mspx) this evening. Danko talked about Scrum, planning, teams and managing requirements. He kept the audience wanting more and had great funny movies to show.

I'm happy to announce here publicly that we (at Sela) were able to convince Danko to Join our [Sela Agile Group](http://sela.co.il/Agile), where he will work as a **Scrum coach, trainer and consultant**.

Danko is also the first official blogger on the new [Agile Israel Community Si](http://agileisrael.org/)te, and his blog can be found [here](http://agileisrael.org/blogs/danko). He writes in Hebrew which is a good thing because there aren't a lot of agile blogs in Hebrew.

If you're interested in opening your own blog on Agile Israel, send me an email to **\[email removed\]**.
