that is a good summary Sante, so in other words if majority of key method elements are present we can call it a method applied.
Or Flexible Scrum :-)
Just like you can tailor the project management processes to suits your project, the same can be done with scrum. I think there is lots of benefit to this.

Yes Scrum principles can be applied outside software. In fact the Global Scrum Gathering which just wrapped up this week had a "theme" with multiple speakers in this area. In brief, the "core principles" hold across disciplines such as focusing on value delivery and making that incremental, team structure around delivering that value, incorporating the ceremonies such as daily standups (can be called a "meeting" if standup doesn't work in your setting), ongoing retrospectives, etc. Additionally there were people there from education who had nice results in both secondary and post-secondary settings. If you have specific areas where you have the most interest please let me know and I can try to connect you with someone who has done that.
From https://www.scrumalliance.org/courses-even...8/theme-tracks: Non-Software Scrum
Move beyond boundaries and explore Scrum for the whole organization. Most people associate Scrum with building software; yet any function, department, or discipline can benefit. Speakers will address applying Scrum to non-software products and services — from manufacturing to marketing, HR to finance. Learn how the speed and agility of Scrum practices can add value and optimize organizational performance in areas beyond IT.

It would depend who you talk to Lenka. There are purists and there are realists ;-)
I am also interested to see not only that scrum can be applied in non-software for other projects but if that can be applied in maintenance practices, manufacturing or even in assets managements. Saving Changes...
