Well said, Len.

Good people working well together: developers, managers, users, with shared vision, shared commitment, and mutual trust, and with competence and humility in good balance.  If you have that then it really doesn't matter what methods, tools, and technologies you go for. If you don't have them then you've got a rocky road ahead.

Not XML.   It is the Team that makes the difference between a success that is barely noticed because it worked, and having to apologize on TV every day for months.
