I'm struggling to see value in this definition beyond the content contained in the two pages on Agile Manifesto website. I had to go back and look at it, which I recommend that everyone do from time to time, and it really does seem complete and clear even after all of these years. <br><br>Items that aren't included on the Manifesto site, like "creating cross-functional teams", aren't really part of Agile, IMHO. This one in particular seems like a bit of a pipe dream, really. People aren't fungible resources and shouldn't be organized like they are. And, surely the principle that, "The best architectures, requirements, and designs emerge from self-organizing teams.", would win out if the team decided that it wanted to wo
rk in a very siloed manner?<br><br>I'm not trying to be hyper-critical, but one of the big issues we have in the Agile/Scrum world seems be competing definitions about fundamental concepts. Here we have 4 main clauses in the Manifesto, and 12 underlying principles. It's short, simple and the implications are fairly obvious.<br><br>If there was one explanatory item that I'd ever feel was needed it would be this: Users never really fully engage in the software design process until you give them working software to interact with. Requirements, white-board diagrams, meetings, demos, mock-ups, prototypes or any other aid you can try will not elicit the input that you need from the customer to build the right software. The only defense against this is
write a minimal amount of working software and get it into the customers hands as soon as possible, then listen to what they say.<br><br>It's clear to me that the authors of the manifesto completely understood this. The first 4 principles are all about making that happen.<br><br>dave
