  • Abstract
    The author retells a downtrodden project´s attempt to rejuvenate itself by doing extreme programming, discussing successes, shortcomings, and, ultimately, lessons learned. In particular, the author credits the team´s composition for its ultimate success. Although XP wasn´t the team´s immediate salvation, it made the application sustainable past the project´s deadline
