- Microsoft Visual Studio Application Lifecycle Management Rangers
- Goal: How we leverage Scrum with non-dedicated and non-collocated teams Useful for those who have community & open source stuff. Those investing in 10% time projects.

- Constant improvement Mention Brians Book
- Favour scrum – ease of onboading, tooling with scrum templates etc…
- Meeting – mention Lync
- Ceremony needs to be kept low Max time per project Keep the passion high Stakeholders to give them etas Roadmap Clear plan, communicated to the team during kick off
- Win/lose as one Ideal is 7 +/- 2 Upper limit at 10 Project Owner (owns the backlog, subject matter expert) Has a backup Limit to three inflight projects Project Lead (dev/tech) Program Manager (rangers representive; PM; tester; scrum master; development; review) Has a backup Limit to three inflight projects Creators Testers

- Epics!!! We have a set time, include that in your engineering We use story points for sizing Max of 3 SP. Stable Velocity is not an issue – we have a goal velocity which is based off previous experience & if we go above it bonus. If we go below it, we review the reasons, adjust goal velocity with new info, adjust the backlog and move along. The other side is that passion is a powerful motivator for getting stuff done. On the projects I’ve seen, passion trumps velocity. Planning poker is used – mention TFS tools Can vote for ½, 1, 3, 5, 8
