Pig and Chickens

I was reading about ‘stand-up meetings’, which is an interesting concept of Agile Computing; I liked the differentiation of “commit” vs. “involved”; check it out in the following excerpt:

Pig and Chickens
A chicken and a pig are together when the chicken says, "Let's start a restaurant!"
The pig thinks it over and says, "What would we call this restaurant?"


The chicken says, "Ham n' Eggs!"


The pig says, "No thanks, I'd be committed, but you'd only be involved!"


[Schwaber and Beedle, 2001]
