Specific goals

  • Roll-out of "Scrum of Scrum" - We are currently working with other WPs to ensure that we always have a project-level, up to date product backlog. There will be more announcements in the next few weeks, and on October 15, we want to start using it for good.
  • Grooming of WP7 Scrum Backlog - Our scrum backlog must be aligned with the overall product backlog. We will start this beforehand online, but I expect to finalize the initial grooming on October 15, with the goal to keep it continuously groomed until the end of the project.
  • Resource planning - The hours reported on the Activity log are very low. If these numbers were right, then most partners would have to work overtime for the rest of the year to fulfill their ITEA obligations. My goal is to understand (a) what resources are actually available and (b) how to make sure that we activate the dormant resources that we have.
  • Technical sessions, as time permits - I don't expect the above to take more than half a day. I suggest to use the other half for technical break-out sessions. Please indicate below what topics you are interested in.
