ALM Rangers – Some information and resources

I’m often asked about what it means to be part of the ALM Rangers and what type of work we are involved with.  Follow this link for a great way to describe it.  An abstract of what we do (copied directly from http://blogs.msdn.com/b/willy-peter_schaub/archive/2012/03/31/understanding-the-visual-studio-alm-rangers.aspx):

The ALM Rangers are focused primarily on the delivery of out-of-band tooling and practical guidance to remove adoption blockers in real world environments. Typically an ALM Ranger solution is a hybrid of practical guidance and supporting out-of-band tooling and sample code.
