Jared Richardson describes a process he wants his team to follow. Many others have attempted the same and have reached similar conclusions, and I can't disagree with any of Jared's thoughts.
However, I think he misses out the most important part of the process which should be to regularly think about your process and what you have done and how you could have done it better. All processes and practices should be adaptable. Different people have different strengths and new technologies mean we have to develop things in different ways.
A lot has been written about technical debt, where if not enough time is invested in developing high quality software, it becomes harder to maintain and costs of new developments increase over time. We should also think about process debt, where if not enough time is spent improving and adapting our processes, they become less efficient and costs of new developments also increase.
