Agile is dead

Agile is dead, long live agility.

Most notable point to take away from the article is what Agile originally stood for in the first place.
Individuals and Interactions over Processes and Tools
Working Software over Comprehensive Documentation
Customer Collaboration over Contract Negotiation, and
Responding to Change over Following a Plan

After years of misunderstanding, misuse and misnomers, this is most likely not what is understood to be agile. So one of the founders, Dave Thomas, co author of Pragmatic Programmer, has declared 'agile' dead, replaced with 'agility', as in 'you’re a programmer who programs with agility'.
