I really don't care about Scrum. I really don't care about XP. I don't care about Agile RUP, or any other Agile process. But I do care about the agile practices embedded within these processes. I find little value in debating the advantages of XP over RUP. Of course, I've had the debate before, but mostly just to argue that it's not about the process, it's about the practice, the team and the culture. I don't care if you do Use Case Realizations. I care more about why you do them and what value they bring to your team. Agility is not a process, it is an ability. The ability to remain nimble and accommodate change. Why would we want to be anything but agile? Slow, brittle, and inept are certainly not defining characteristics of success. As in life, remaining agile requires care, attention, and nurturing.
