Nice to see that you agree. In case of bigger projects Prince2 for sure provides you the sometimes needed control. On the other hand I really love the Agile approach which makes that this "control" effort is less needed. I think it mainly depends on the type of customer and the self-responsibility of the development team what approach is best. I am curious what you and others think about this.

Methodologies such as Prince do provide a good mechanism for making the business case for a project and for enforcing rigor and accountability at major milestones, but does not support the way many of today’s development teams work. You need the flexibility of an Agile approach at a granular level, but having a more formal project governance process provides the context for the deliverables and tasks that will be delivered using Agile techniques.
