D-Day
Well the software is not what we thought of, you have done some things right, I guess you worked really hard as well. But we cannot use the software as it is because it is missing some major features ...
On the other side
You guys have done a great job, even though the software isn't 100% complete yet but we can still use it, as all major requirements are covered.
Parting Thoughts ...
- Agile is not a fad
- It is the solution of problems developers faced over and over again
- It directly benefits the business, not just the techies
- It promotes quick feedback, and its reinforcement
- It is not rigid, and can be customized as per context
- If you fail, you fail early
