Principles behind the Agile Manifesto translation

Principles behind the Agile Manifesto
敏捷宣言的基本原则

We follow these principles:

Our highest priority is to satisfy the customer
through early and continuous delivery
of valuable software.
我们的最高目标是通过尽量早的和持续的提交有价值的软件去满足客户需求

Welcome changing requirements, even late in
development. Agile processes harness change for
the customer's competitive advantage.
需求变化事欢迎的，即使在开发的晚期时候，敏捷软件开发的处理能够控制变化让客户变得更有竞争力

Deliver working software frequently, from a
couple of weeks to a couple of months, with a
preference to the shorter timescale.
经常提交可以运行的软件，从几周到几月，选择更短期的时间周期

Business people and developers must work
together daily throughout the project.
客户和开发人员必须一起工作在整个工程过程中

Build projects around motivated individuals.
Give them the environment and support they need,
and trust them to get the job done.
让那些有积极性的人去编译和打包工程，给他们环境，提供他们所需，并且相信他们能够把工作完成

The most efficient and effective method of
conveying information to and within a development
team is face-to-face conversation.
在一个开发团队中最有效的交换和交流方法事面对面的对话

Working software is the primary measure of progress.
可以交付使用(working)的软件使工程进展的度量标准之一

Agile processes promote sustainable development.
The sponsors, developers, and users should be able
to maintain a constant pace indefinitely.
敏捷开发提供和提高了可以持续的开发，发起人，开发人，用户能够保持一直同步

Continuous attention to technical excellence
and good design enhances agility.
技术优势的持续关注和良好的设计使敏捷开发变得更加优秀

Simplicity--the art of maximizing the amount
of work not done--is essential.
简单化是本质的－最大化工作量不能做任何事情

The best architectures, requirements, and designs
emerge from self-organizing teams.
最好的架构，需求和设计是从自组织的的团队出现的

At regular intervals, the team reflects on how
to become more effective, then tunes and adjusts
its behavior accordingly.
在一个开发的周期间隔，团队会去反思怎样使开发更有效，统一步调，并且做出相应的调整
