But you can still keep your software releasable by implementing features in an incremental way, as described here: http://martinfowler.com/bliki/FeatureToggle.html I don't see how delivering an in progress story has any value. Two reasons: one, the faster you get feedback on the part of the story you have done so far, the faster you know if any further work is going to be valuable, and what in fact the next most valuable thing to deliver is. Second, most of the pain of the software delivery process comes *after* the software is dev-complete, during testing and deployment (often called the "last mile"). One of the important points of cd is that by creating deployable software with every commit, you avoid the pain at the end of the delivery process. Jez.
