ABSTRACT
As a stakeholder of a software project, how does the following sound to you? You can have releases as often as you like. The small number of defects is unprecedented. All of the features in the system are the most valuable ones to your business. At anytime, you have access to complete, accurate information as the status of any feature and of the quality of the system as a whole. The team developing your project works in an energized space with constant communication about the project. You are not dependent on any one or even two programmers for the continued success of the project. If your needs change, the development team welcomes the change of direction.
