The arguments haven't changed. they just sound more defensive and shrill :-) I liked Luke’s article too :-)

I'd much rather use it except for the baggage that comes along with it. I think I talk about that somewhere on the site. Keep up the good work. Yeah, no doubt, “Agile” is a much better word.

Where my post is on the angry side, his is very much witty. Haven't had time to read all of this site (but I will), although your 'about' page makes a lot of sense. It pretty much captures the way I like to think about software development; I might try and put that down in words in an upcoming post. I fear that the term 'pliant' may be significantly less catchy than 'Agile', but I hope the ideas can catch on nevertheless. Really glad you liked it so much :)
