Since this is Martin&#8217;s first visit to Brazil, I decided to ask him some questions that I thought would be of interest to the participants, and he has kindly agreed to participate in this mini-interview:<\/p>\n<p><strong>Q: What have been keeping you busy lately?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><em>Martin Fowler: Overwhelmingly it&#8217;s my upcoming <a href=\"http:\/\/martinfowler.com\/bliki\/DslBookRoadmap.html\">book on DSLs<\/a>. I found writing books to be hard work, and it&#8217;s actually getting harder. By June I expect all of the content will be cast so my mind will be able to get away from it &#8211; which I&#8217;m very much looking forward to.<\/em><\/p>\n<p><strong>Q: What are your expectations about Agile Brazil 2010?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><em>MF: I try not to have expectations about things, that way my mind can be open to the reality when I see it. I&#8217;ve been doing conferences frequently for two decades now, so it&#8217;s hard to get excited about them. I am excited about coming to Brazil. It will be my first time in South America and both I and my wife have long wanted to come down.<\/em><\/p>\n<p><strong>Q: What are you going to talk about in your keynote?<br \/>\n<\/strong><br \/>\n<em>MF: I have no idea. I often don&#8217;t decide on my keynote until very close to speaking &#8211; often doing extemporaneous talks &lt;<a href=\"http:\/\/martinfowler.com\/bliki\/ExtemporarySpeaking.html\" target=\"_blank\">http:\/\/martinfowler.com\/bliki\/ExtemporarySpeaking.html<\/a>&gt;. Recently I&#8217;ve been doing keynote talks consisting of three or so talklets, some with slides, some without. But exactly how I&#8217;ll do it is something I may only decide the night before.<\/em><\/p>\n<p><strong>Q: How do you see the Brazilian software community influencing the future of Agile?<br \/>\n<\/strong><br \/>\n<em>MF: It&#8217;s hard to say, as I&#8217;m not that familiar with the Brazilian software world. I&#8217;ve been very impressed by the Brazilian ThoughtWorkers I&#8217;ve met over the years, so I know there&#8217;s great potential here. I&#8217;m generally keen to see more varied cultures contribute to the software world, I think it&#8217;s an important part of us growing as a profession.<\/em><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.agilebrazil.com\">Agile Brazil 2010<\/a> is going to be an incredible conference, and we&#8217;re inviting speakers to <a href=\"http:\/\/submissoes.agilebrazil.com\/?locale=en\">submit session proposals<\/a> (the deadline is approaching: <strong>28\/Feb!<\/strong>).

Como esta ser\u00e1 a primeira vez que Martin visita o Brasil, decidi fazer algumas perguntas que julguei interessantes para os participantes do evento, e ele concordou gentilmente em participar desta mini-entrevista:<\/p>\n<p><strong>P: O que tem te mantido ocupado ultimamente?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><em>Martin Fowler: Surpreendentemente \u00e9 o meu novo <a href=\"http:\/\/martinfowler.com\/bliki\/DslBookRoadmap.html\">livro sobre DSLs<\/a>. Eu acho que escrever livros \u00e9 um trabalho \u00e1rduo e na verdade isso tem se tornado cada vez mais dif\u00edcil. At\u00e9 Junho eu espero que todo o conte\u00fado esteja definido assim isso vai poder sair um pouco da minha cabe\u00e7a &#8211; algo que estou realmente ansioso para acontecer.<\/em><\/p>\n<p><strong>P: Quais s\u00e3o suas expectativas para a Agile Brazil 2010?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><em>MF: Eu tento n\u00e3o criar expectativas sobre essas coisas, assim minha mente pode estar aberta para a realidade quando eu a ver. Eu tenho participado de confer\u00eancias frequentemente h\u00e1 duas d\u00e9cadas, ent\u00e3o acho dif\u00edcil me empolgar com elas. Mas estou empolgado em visitar o Brasil.

Eu tenho me impressionado bastante com os ThoughtWorkers brasileiros que conheci ao longo dos anos, ent\u00e3o eu sei que existe um grande potencial aqui.
