Bad sprint planning is easy:
1: Overcommit.
2: Forget dependencies.
3: Blame velocity.

Imagine your responsible working team had a chat group where every one would write when they are done (soon) or blocked and you would gather on demand to discuss the topic and further steps. And everyone would speak up when they think others are too fixed on something.

Instead of a fixed time slot every day where the team tries to address everything.

»How the State of Agile Has Evolved Over 17 Reports« https://www.scrum.org/resources/blog/how-state-agile-has-evolved-over-17-reports #Agilist.in #Agile #Change #Lean #Kanban #Scrum

If a highly customisable #python, #scrum or #agile utility actually sounds like something you'd be keen on using, I'd actually really love to know. v0.2 has a couple of significant design changes that would effect calling it as a library or creating your own templates, and I'd love some feedback on the design (probably in a week or two) before I merge it in.

But - `pip install scrummd` will already give you the scrum tool nobody asked for!

#ScrumMD started as a joke - basically '#Agile was supposed to be developer lead, but #Jira has ruined it by inviting leadership in. What would it look like to have a tool that I'd want to use as a developer?' I knew that nobody else probably would want something like this - and that a '#scrum' tool that requires a cli/text editor to use, as well as having the cards be local files (so, you'd need to manage distribution yourself) wasn't going to be endorsed by any company.

Halbzeit der Woche! Lasst uns mal über eure Praxis sprechen:

Wie handhabt ihr die Regeln für euer #Kanban- oder #Scrum-Board? Sind sie bei euch explizit definiert? Und die große Frage an alle #Jira-Nutzer: Habt ihr einen Weg gefunden, diese Regeln direkt am Board sichtbar zu machen?

Ich teile in der aktuellen Folge meine Gedanken (und einen kleinen Rant 😉). Freue mich auf eure Erfahrungen!
