Mates, Our teams sometimes have multiple projects. I am wondering what is the best way and what is the SCRUM way of handling this. My feeling is that the best...
I'm presenting Scrum to my company and would like to refer to to some numbers indicating Scrum is credible and mainstream such as: # of certified Scrum Masters...
... Ideally, I think it's best to have one team working on one project only. That said, I guess it could work to have one backlog spanning several projects....
Hi ... I am sorry there are no such numbers which you could reliably refer to. ... Those numbers are meaningless. There are many ScrumMasters who get certified...
David, thanks for responding. The purpose is to highlight for an executive presentation that Scrum is not prioneering fringe work done by a few, rather that...
Maybe see if the execs want to see real working software on a regular basis. And. Find out why they want to change what they are doing today. The answers may...
Hi all, I just posted a blog entry on the Nokia Test. It explains what it is, and makes some comments about it. Here: http://agileconsortium.blogspot.com/ ...
I think it would be great to post a short on-line survey that asks Scrum praticioners the Nokia test questions to see if they pass and publish the summary of...

No, no, no. You can still be thought of as the pointy haired boss, while knowing about it. All it takes is having "your people " flip the bozo bit on you. ...
Hi Gilad, I think your "backlog" means "product backlog", right? Then I against the idea of having a single product backlog per team. First, product owner is...

Given that a 'project' is really just a collection of apparently associated activities, probably intending to achieve a common outcome, then I think that is...
That is the way we handle this situation. We have one team and one product backlog covering a variety of projects. There is one product owner and he is the...

You mean, sort of "Fail Early ... and avoid the rush!" :) To: scrumdevelopment@...: Emiliano.Heyns@...: Mon, 3 Dec 2007 13:57:41...
... The sole interest cannot be "the success of the project" if the implied undercurrent is "at any cost the PO will not personally feel". The Scrum Master...
Hi Wolfgang, This is indeed the state I would like. We do have 1 PO for multiple projects and it seems like the correct way to handle. BR, G ... product ... ...
I have a case where the PO want to drop all possible "tests" (because it is a waste for him), ask developers to do extra hours, etc... to meet the deadline....
This sounds like a perfect situation for Sprint 0, Your first sprint should be all about understanding the project/code. You don't mention your sprint duration...
Folks, I apologize for being slightly off-topic, but I would like your thoughts regarding what you feel is the optimum configuration for an agile workplace....
I would recommend teamrooms where everyone works together, but also to set aside a number of private offices where small meetings and private work time could...
... I think that misses the point. The issue isn't "quality" in the context of the company's relationship with the consumer. The developers might have some...

which begs the obvious questions ... Deliver what in time? Who decided the time? What realistic connection is there between 'on time' and what must be...
One of the first things that struck me about SCRUM and Agile is the statement that "Quality is not negotiable". Maybe your PO needs to be reminded that if you...
