Hi errd,
I see there is no replies to this topic. Not everyone knows what Agile is and/or how you applied it within your organization. Can you please describe your workflow in more details? That could help us have a clearer picture of your needs...

a short answer to your question, but surely not realy helpful: we doesn't going the agile-way of life at our company. but i would realy like to read other stories about this theme in combination with ac.
but i think, after the small thing i know about agile development and scrum, ac is not the best solution for this. correct me if i'm wrong, but you need a big bag of tasks (user stories) even for a relative small project. technicaly possible, but ac doesn't do a good job to visualize this informations in this size.
i would like to see a much better integration of tasks, tickets, milestones and all the other, project-related informations to the calendar for this cause.

We're using aC for our XP/Crystal Clear projects, and its working great.
The user stories are tickets, and we simply assign those tickets to our next milestone. As the tasks within the tickets are done, that use case is complete and our manager is able to see how the scheduled tickets are being completed.
Clearly, this could be acheived with index cards, but not all developers are in one office, so this gives visibility to all of us.
