Editor's Notes
- #6: Hier nicht drauf: Grooming the Backlog - nicht mehr als 10% des Sprint. Self empowerment Sprint content is fixed
- #17: User stories and more – now the “more” In most frameworks we see only the right side of the picture addressed. But what about the left side? It’s a good and recommended practice that agile projects care about these three areas as well.
