Redesigning Agile: Part I – Challenges

"Scrum requires a stable team that has a consistent velocity."

I guess this is a problem when you have a work environment where people are leaving because of the process. Even if you implement Agile, people are likely to continue leaving, making a "stable team" harder to find.

Perhaps the overall take-away is that sucking as a company can't be fixed by a methodology.

...And this is totally beside the point. It's great to see someone customizing their process in lieu of following it cultishly.
