I Come to Bury Agile, Not to Praise It
Summary
Agile came from small, colocated projects in the 1990s. It has spread to large, globally distributed commercial projects, affecting the IEEE, the PMI, the SEI and the Department of Defense. Agile now sits in a larger landscape and should be viewed accordingly. This talk shows that landscape, clarifying how classical agile fits in and what constitutes effective development outside that narrow area.

Wonderful presentation, great concepts.
I posted "Agile Safari" a while back where i had these three points:
1. Always deliver functionality
2. Develop in short manageable cycles
3. Make use of the customer
and no more. which is Agile from the perspective of a giraffe (software developer and hands on development manager).
I would love to know what you think
