Abstract
This paper describes some experiences with the implementation of knowledge management techniques in an agile development department. After placing the discussion in the context of the department tasks and resultant organisation, the experiences in managing the various, software engineering relevant, knowledge types are reviewed. Before drawing conclusions, KM relevant experiences using ”agile-compatible” tools are discussed.
