KISS in Agile stands for Keep it simple Stupid

This applies to everything from planning, to design to development.

Do the simplest thing possible.

Don’t make it up.

Keep it simple

Hello,

The KISS principle is mentionned in Eric Raymond, New Hacker dictionary and therefore predates agile.
See http://www.ccil.org/jargon/jargon_26.html#SEC33

The corresponding XP practice is Simple design.

Cheers,
Philippe
