[edit] Confusing timeline
Second paragraph: Scrum was first applied in 1993 at Easel .... These principles later became some of the basics of Scrum. ... These projects were observed and the results were published ... (January-February 1986)
Something in that paragraph needs a change to clarify the timeline.
[edit] Object Oriented
I don't think Scrum specifies an object oriented approach. In fact, it leaves it up to the developers to decide the approach that best works for them. It's often used with XP, with Test Driven Development, which would lend itself to a highly modular (not necessarily OO) design, but I don't think it should be listed as a characteristic of Scrum.

- Objection raised. Object orientated in this context refers to the processes described within the methodology. Each iterative item can be described as an object and thus doesn't in any way refer to the IT term. Instead the terms draws you to the implication which, in my understanding, means a semi-independent item within a whole. Maxwellvz 14:11, 25 September 2006 (UTC)

- I haven't heard that term used in this context before. It also seems to me to be rather ambiguous. If that is the term in common use, then fair enough, but I think some sort of explanation (along the lines of what you've already given) is in order. Mutant 21:39, 26 September 2006 (UTC)

- Ken Schwaber's SCRUM Development Process describes how an object orientated approach can be used with SCRUM. Maxwellvz
