when the daily, morning status meeting started being referred toas 'the stand-up', concepts got blurred.

a meeting is held as a stand-up in order to encourage brevity.

so the poster is looking for alternatives to morning status meetings, not stand-up meetings.

stand-up meetings are just fine. thankyouverymuch

Agree. Stand ups are about syncing up, focus and helping each other, not status reporting to line management. I ranted about it this a few days ago: http://blog.flurdy.com/2013/04/i-dont-care-what-you-did-yest...
