DESCRIPTION:Just about everybody is for innovation\, everybody talks about
  it and finds it vitally important\, but somehow we have a shortage of met
 hodological advice on how to make innovation more likely in software devel
 opment – at least at the level of the software team or project. The Agil
 e Manifesto offered promise for innovation by changing focus back to softw
 are itself more than elaborate requirements and processes. This change ope
 ned up for experimentation\, learning\, and flexibility in software projec
 ts\, but the values of the Agile Manifesto sought to develop better softwa
 re more effectively\, not to innovate. How can we focus specifically on so
 ftware innovation? A methodology for software innovation must stand on a s
 et of values to guide work on the methodology as well as work inspired by 
 it. These values have both theoretical and practical implications. This ta
 lk proposes one such set of values\, illustrates their potential\, and out
 lines a methodology to facilitate team-based software innovation.
