Most of that seems to be too much chopping away at the trees without seeing the forest, and the forest is big enough now that it’s not going to die. Whatever the word “agile” becomes or comes to connote, the practices and mindset that it let loose on the software world are the seeds that are making lots of new skills grow. The field of software development is so young, based on how much of what’s been learned actually gets applied, that we have lots of growing yet to do. I don’t anticipate being bored with this work any time soon.

I think it's great to be able to say that you are pragmatic. Pragmatists don't subscribe to a single development process. I agree. I think it’s great to be able to say that you are pragmatic.
