agile is just another psuedo religious methodology, guess what its good for some projects and the wrong choice for others, good leaders who can select the best methodology for a given project are what is needed not some bigot ramming their hobby horse methodology down everyones throat for everthing

agile as implemented at the organisations youve been at has many cons, do i really have to list them?

isnt BT such a meritocracy giving mates of the political class at the top jobs like urs instead of going for the best people they can find

so sad

Mainly I am thinking, don't stop. I appreciate the music reflections because they map closely to mine from the 70's. I went through the whole, Nice, Deep Purple, Neil Young, David Bowie, ELP, etc etc period, from Caird Hall in Dundee, to Hammersmith Odeon in London. Wonderful memories :-) Thanks for this …. if you find daily is to frequent, which I suspect you may, weekly is fine. Mainly I am thinking, don’t stop.
