Everyone needs a cryptic slogan
I’ve been talking to Jason and Jonathan, the post-Agile guys, about post-Agile. I don’t get it, but that’s OK. What it made me realize is that a properly obscure name for the kind of software development I want to do is…
Retro-Futurist
Micro-Scale
Anarcho-Syndicalism
It is supposed to connote:
-
Back to giddy optimism!
-
Technology! Shiny!
-
Don’t fret about “Them”
-
Goals and preferences over rules
-
We’re all in this together
Perhaps there will be t-shirts and posters by Agile2008.
P.S. I use the term “anarcho-syndicalism” pretty loosely. Don’t forget the two lines of qualifiers.
