A common criticism of "web standards" and of me personally has been that such constraints limit the freedom of creation and innovation. I find this thinking to be logical and reasonable. I also find the way we apply it us often impracticle. (1)

A developer aquaintance and I have been discussing our frustrations with the state of the web. A thought they sent to me was about Agile development and the thought that this factored in to the discontentment's we were feeling.

Agile development is in fact a very fine metaphor to explain the true goals and intent of my position. Especially scrum to sprint which use limitations to solve problems quickly. Specifically applied, I believe this method to be powerful, but as a methodology, it often fails.

When we think about the Agile process of srum and sprint, we have a time limitation to state where our individual issues with a given problem exist. Once scrum finishes, we move forward to sprint. Is that truly enough time to develop enough strength to solve a problem?

Human beings take a lot of time to develop physically. We don't pop out of the womb speaking succinctly on a shared issue. We don't take our first breath and immediatly start sprinting. It might be a nice thought, but isn't what happens because we need more time to develop.

Never do I personally want the web developer to not have opportunity to create and innovate. We can do this in a sandbox, but we rush to deployment, usually for reasons that include making a deadline, retaining a paycheckc, and of course, the company profit and optics.
