AGILE is basically some more management bunkum invented by an American in a big blue-chip organisation. What it means is that you get things done quickly and strive to satisfy the customer by talking to them and you end up giving them what they want.

• Customer satisfaction by rapid, continuous delivery of useful software
• Working software is delivered frequently
• Working software is the principal measure of progress
• Even late changes in requirements are welcomed
• Close, daily cooperation between business people and developers
• Face-to-face conversation is the best form of communication
• Projects are built around motivated individuals, who should be trusted
• Continuous attention to technical excellence and good design
• Simplicity
• Self-organizing teams
• Regular adaptation to changing circumstances

Sounds good doesn't it. This is the way we strive to work. We throw in a bit of Prince 2 just to make sure the customer knows just what he's getting and to make quite sure he knows what isn't being delivered.
