goes Agile: Don't Repeat our Mistakes
summary
Qik joins Skype in 2011 and a promised March release fails because Skype forces work through ~50 release vehicles (RVs), creating chains of six RVs per product and blowing up cycle time (measured cycle efficiency ~30% vs. typical scrum ~20%). The team visualizes delivery with a product board, reduces 23 to 8 user stories as the priority, forms an integration team, fixes a May 2013 release date and restores regular, demonstrable releases.
