I'd say Agile development is about "agorisation" of the development process. "Agorisation" is the act of making a place (virtual or not) amenable to proposing, discussing, and setting up and in motion categories that will enhance this development process in both qualitative and quantitative aspects, such that agents who collaborate into it can live through this process like a citizen through the city.

category (n.)

1580s, in Aristotle's logic, "a highest notion," from Middle French catégorie, from Late Latin categoria, from Greek kategoria "accusation, prediction, category," verbal noun from kategorein "to speak against; to accuse, assert, predicate," from kata "down to" (or perhaps "against;" see cata-) + agoreuein "to harangue, to declaim (in the assembly)," from agora "public assembly" (from PIE root *ger- "to gather").
