Neville’s latest, What if Congress Adopted the Agile Manifesto, is truly great.
You can read the whole post at the jump, but here’s my favorite part:

…I think Congress skipped this step. Oh well, it was the only “essential” step.
I’ve long been an advocate of Congress getting as little “work done” as possible. Congress working means us either paying higher taxes or losing liberties–often times both. If you ever hear your Congressman bragging about how many pieces of legislation he’s had passed, vote that guy out as quickly as possible.

If I were President I’d nominate you to be my Agile Czar.
And I’d fly you and a couple dozen other folks over to Denmark for a conference on Agility.
