Learning about Scrum

Google Video presentation from Ken Schwaber, one of the founders of Scrum, about the basics of Scrum. Well worth looking at, especially if you come from a XP background.

Great Quote “Exercise profession competently”

Core messages:

• Say no to cutting quality — make product management drop features instead
• It’s easy to end up with a design dead product, it takes about 5 years of cutting corners

Intresting tit-bit

• Drive Architecture and Infrastructure from non-functional requirements
• Scrum was not successful until the advent of high quality IDE’s
