When Flash Player 9 was released, one of the touted features was performance with the new ActionScript Virtual Machine. Â At the time, I had put Flex 2 through a few of it’s paces, and felt that the new Flash Player had more than enough speed.

Â Then, on my recent project, I ran into 2 performance bottlenecks which caused the Flash Player to choke.

I learn something new every project, and this one was no different. Â The one I want to talk about today is that designers can do a lot more in the designer developer workflow than I’ve previously experienced them doing.
That’s the impression I got from reading this post. Â I guess I’d be bitter too if I worked my tail off making something open source worthy, weeded through the thousands of bug reports on Jira to ensure I captured all the contributions, only to read not-so positive reviews about Adobe’s awesome efforts online.
The Agile Chronicles is a set of articles documenting my experiences using an Agile process (Scrum) in software development on my current Flex project.
In this article, I discuss how Scrum for the most part brings Scope Creep under control, the areas where it doesn’t, and what you can do about it.
