Sep 29, 2010 at 20:55 comment added Don Kirkby I clarified the question and changed the title, since it was more about a specific strategy than about promiscuous pairing in general.

Sep 29, 2010 at 20:51 comment added Don Kirkby @Fosco, I think promiscuous pairing is when you swap partners frequently and make all possible pairs within the team. However, I'm asking about the specific strategy where you always swap out the senior member of each pair, and bring in the developer with the least relevant skills. The paper I linked to distinguishes between skills and competencies. (Skills are more specific.)
