Trying to put together what everyone is saying, both here and on the other recently-necro'd scrum thread:
Treat scrum (or any other development management process) as you would treat a great drive train or manipulator design or reveal video you find on Chief Delphi:
- Consider what problems you have that it might solve.
- Consider whether you have the resources (time, talent, training, treasury) to accomplish it.
- Consider whether there are pieces of it that you can adopt or adapt into your development.
- You may decide to use it all, use none of it, or use a few bits and pieces.
- After you give it a try, figure out what worked and what didn't. Iterate and make it better!
