		<description><![CDATA[I agree. We have been using Scrum for more then two years now and we wouldn&#039;t like to switch back to the waterfall approach.

I can imagine that it wasn&#039;t easy to convince the analysts to switch to Scrum. Hopefully the Scrum process is accepted by now!]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Hi Peter,I think you&#039;ve hit the nail on the head when you say its going to be more about educating the team towards Scrum.I&#039;ve been working on a Scrum based project for the last 14 months, for a large UK based company.  I love Scrum as its win-win for everyone involved (but not always suited to every project).  In these early days you have to hold your nerve and try to resist the pressure to run the project in a traditional waterfall manner.  After the first few Sprints the business will really see the benefits, as they see real progress being made on a regular basis.  In my opinion the business/end users just love the process as to them it hands back some control - it&#039;s usually IT personnel that put up the most resistance, as they cant accept that something so simple can possibly work without reams of documentation, convulate processes, and endless meetings!Good luck,Paul Brookes]]></description>
