Feb 16, 2017 at 15:47 comment added kenchilada This is our approach. The problem with agile in our scenario is the legacy code is an inherited mess. It is impossible to size story complexity accurately when they heavily involve legacy. It is easy for the team to fail the sprint because of it. We're trying to determine how to deal with this in scrum.

May 2, 2012 at 18:46 comment added MarkJ @pap Yes, agile (TM) has been hyped so hard there's a danger of blindly using one fixed methodology, without thinking about your own specific situation.
May 2, 2012 at 14:25 comment added pap +1 for demonstrating that Agile may not be an ideal approach for certain kinds of real-life implementations.
