I was using http://kanbantool.com which supports analysis but until now I wasn't sure how to interpret it - thanks a lot for your explanation. Great job, Karl.

I've driven change initiatives to convert product organizations over to Agile over the last 9 years, last one using Scrum, driven bottom-up...yikes, I must say Kanban seems like something that would be easier to implement as an Agile team matures rather than trying to start with it. Thoughts? Great post Karl.

However, you could have a swimlane split into two, depending on implementation characteristics. Presumably this would be because of some form of specialism required, and it would be a good way of managing the demand on the specialists, and encourage collaboration and multi-skilling when the specialists were overloaded.

Could you explain this a bit further, is it like using two swimlines? Basicly I have a flow where parts of the workflow uses different subflows. Step X could go to step Y or step Z, depending of the charesteristics of the story. Great article, but the following confuses me:
