So... some process that wasn't agile... that had no name, no principles... but it worked! Was this a singular process, that everyone just 'knew'? Or did every company have their own, that varied in principles and effectiveness. What if a group of people sat down and tried studying what worked and what didn't... say in the .. 2001 time frame, I wonder what they would come up with.
- g051051 5y agoWell, since they came up with "Agile", it's pretty clear they didn't actually survey what worked and what didn't. They were consultants selling methodologies, and came up with something that was so poorly defined and difficult to implement that it gave them consulting jobs for life. Much better and easier than actually developing software!

You simply cannot implement anything based on what they had written since nothing was defined concretely; everything was a platitude.
