    If you have a daily meeting and you have simply just changed the appointment to say "DAILY SCRUM" you are not doing agile development. How did this word end up in the hands (or mouths) of every person from senior management to janitors?

      I think it originated with management who also were/are soccer fans. Someone made a metaphor and people hearing it did not know it was a metaphor and thought it was a new I.T. or developement term. So it starts out with ignorance and then people naturally want to cover up the ignorance. And then we are all expected to know the term and use it as though it is some type of new concept. yikes, it will never end.

              You keep using that word. I do not think it means what you think it means.

              3x12=36 2x12=24 1x12=12 0x12=18
