Re: [extremeprogramming] Origin of term "standup"?

this is better than 90% of what I see in the wild. When we go to it, the usual complaint is “I didn’t get to talk about the work I am doing that isn’t on the board” and then we either put it on the board (transparency?) or else we open up before walking the board for learnings/problems/needs/etc.

Alex, 
I’d be interested in your opinion of what makes a very good stand up and what makes a harmful one.
Would you be able to give us a few pointers?  What is the main value you see the stand up providing?

Subject: Re: [extremeprogramming] Origin of term "standup"? I still believe they are valuable for „teams“ who don’t talk to each other for weeks, and as always I have seen some very good implementations over the years.
Of cause there are also a lot of harmful implementations but I think the value of the good ones outweigh the value of the bad ones.

It's one of those things that  seem to have gone horribly horribly wrong out in the wild.....
Way back when, when I still believed standups  to be a Good Idea, people came together, and didn't bother to sit because it was going to be so short.
They said, mostly by pointing at/moving the sticky on the board what they were working on, and if they were stuck, asked for help. (Which wasn't given in the standup)

Done.
Back to work.
2 minutes max, all done.

Sigh!

All,

Glad to see this group getting saved from oblivion: thanks, Joe!

An interesting question came up at work today: where did the term 
"standup" originate?

I've found a reference from Jeff Sutherland explaining the origins of 
the meeting (and the practice of standing up), but he doesn't explicitly 
claim to have invented the name:

https://www.scruminc.com/origins-daily-standup/

I see it mentioned on Don Wells's XP site with a 1999 copyright, but I'm 
not sure that's an accurate date:

http://www.extremeprogramming.org/rules/standupmeeting.html

(and he keeps them as two words: "Stand Up").

I figure Laurent would know this off the top of his head.... :-)
