"Agile" is not a methodology, it is a collection of techniques and methodologies which have similar characteristics. The people who signed the Agile Manifesto all had their own frameworks (including Scrum); they just were trying to find out what they had in common.

And everyone also seems to have this pie-in-the-sky view of the manifesto whereby nothing on the right exists or matters . . . that's not what that means. You still have processes and tools. You still have documentation. You still have contracts. You still follow a plan. You're just not handcuffed by these things unnecessarily or having them force you to do stupid things.
