tomelders, i can agree with you but the main reason for scrum (waterFAIL or whatever metodology you take) will fail is the inital bullshit in software development, instead of hiring competent and motivated people you rather pay less and hire larger crew of idiots or even worse, out of mgmt own, complete incompetency, hire headcount.
The agile methodologies imho are comming from someone that had luck and instead of winning 7 on national lottery hired competent and motivated people by sheer luck and due to his own self centered line of thought (egocentrism, etc), he thought his "inovative" way, brought in the success and started to market it.
The mgmt is still far too stupid to realize that you cant streamline software development, you cant get revolutionary ideas on requirement and you cant JUSTIFY THEIR POSITIONS!
(oh and btw, my cv consist of 18+ years of c/c++ software developent from world largest IT companies to startups and i think i have seen all the crap the white collars can offer, they just cant comprehend that the creativitye cant be streamlined and are always searching for a silver bullet to pay less and get the breakthrough technology for peanuts)
