Anybody here getting dragged towards agile development methodology?

by robo_dev . Updated 15 years, 2 months ago

In case you did not get the memo, the waterfall has dried up, and the latest and greatest way to make programmers hate their life is called ‘agile development methodology’.

I admit that I have both ‘change fatigue’ and ‘acronym fatigue’ since I’ve lived through the various ‘revolutions’ around such things as:

– ERP (it’s just accounting software)
– JIT (it’s called “planning”)
– CyberWarfare (it’s just security).

Agile, in a nutshell, means that your development teams now produce tons of ‘micro projects’, kicking out small deliverables like a chipper shredder stuck on full throttle.

Anybody here knee deep in the flotsam and jetsam of ‘going agile’?
