In the growing world of software industry it is better to get benefit of markets, skills and reduced cost which are distributed all over the world. This can be achieved by upgrading the practices of agile software development to be in harmony with distributed software development and keeping its intrinsic values from being destroyed or even distorted in spite of geographical barriers, different cultures and different time zones.
