In my search for a software development methodology to help us out of fighting with deadlines and long working hours, I've stumbled upon Scrum after being interested in XP and trying to figure out what MSF is all about. Scrum turned to be interesting specially after it has been refocused more towards project management of software projects repositioning itself as a complement to eXtreme Programming (XP) rather than a competitor. While XP focuses on the software development itself and its details, Scrum focuses more on higher level activities such as project management.
I'm trying now to understand more how Scrum works and then I can try borrowing some of its elements and implementing them gradually to enhance our project management practices. Perhaps we can start benefiting of XP as well later on and integrate both Scrum and XP into a system tailored for us that works with us and improves productivity.
