Our consultants have been thinking about the evolution beyond the current "brand" and where modern software engineering is headed. We have stood up a blog called "SDLC 3.0". www.fourth-medium.com/wordpress Would love your feedback. We are actively discussing topics such as systems dynamics and leveraging PID control theory to take Agile beyond the trough of disillusionment as you folks say. Mark Hi David,

I have followed Gartner’s work following the Agile movement for some time. Our consultants have been thinking about the evolution beyond the current “brand” and where modern software engineering is headed. We have stood up a blog called “SDLC 3.0″.

Would love your feedback. We are actively discussing topics such as systems dynamics and leveraging PID control theory to take Agile beyond the trough of disillusionment as you folks say.

For me the big takeaway is we have turned a corner. And whether we call it Agile 2.0, Adaptive or super agile (I am joking before any ones blogs that one) we are dealing with considerably larger beast than before. Having attended some of the fringe sessions on complexity, set based design and systems engineering I am betting we see an amalgamation of adaptive systems theory, agile and lean. I will go out on a limb and give it a name System Centric Adaptive Development, but more on that in later blogs and research paper’s. Will be interesting to see how the agile community reacts over the next 18 months now the bar has been raised. It was a pleasure to be at Agile 2009, so much going on – great buzz.

I imagine you will have some good color on the whole show after watching how busy you were this week. It was great to have you and your firm in person at the event this year. I assume you and your firm along with IBM, HP and Microsoft may have a hand helping to shape agile as it enters the mainstream and it gets new emerging challengers. New innovations currently bubbling certainly include Lean/Kanban, and Behavior Driven Development. I am very glad to have you in the kitchen with us all as we try to advance our industry. It was a pleasure to meet in person this last week. David,
