The Truth About Agile

The Truth About Agile: http://www.telerik.com/agile-project-management-tools/blogs/13-10-23/the-truth-about-agile-top-30-agile-myths--busted.aspx

One of the better write ups on Agile I have read in a while.  "As described in the myth “Agile Projects don’t provide Budget Estimates”, agile teams fix the cost, fix the date, and vary the scope. The onus is on the Product Owner to make sure the requirements are not only prioritized correct, but ordered correctly. "

So very true!  Which brings up an important aspect of Agile I don't see many publication how, "How to be a good Product Owner".  If you have a customer, project manager, or product owner - whom ever is setting the priorities - if they are not effective, at that the end product is still going to suffer. 

For robotics and robot builders this is important to keep in mind.  Set your goals and prioritize!
