Parleys.com: Evolving Agile: Time to Address the Uncomfortable Issues We'd Prefer to Avoid

As agile software development techniques and concepts cross the "technology adoption chasm" we find that the concerns on the right-hand side of the chasm are much different than those on the left.
We are now facing critical issues which until now many within the agile community have preferred to avoid talking about. Activities such as modeling, documentation, exploratory testing, and database development must become more explicit within our methodologies. We need to find ways to fit into IT governance frameworks, process maturity frameworks, and regulatory guidelines.
Other issues such as certification, enterprise architecture, enterprise business modeling, and outsourcing must also be addressed. Finally, we must help the business take a more active role in development, reform IT financing, and in general manage their IT portfolio effectively.
