Would whoever owns this account please configure your group settings to not send emails? I'm tired of my inbox filling up with messages from "The Webmaster of www.bigtimebiz.biz" stating that you don't receive emails from my domain ebery time I post a message to the group. Yahoo Groups, as originally purchased from E-groups, is an email-based forum. If you don't want to receive emails, then you can configure your group account to not receive emails. Thank you. Mark P.S. The same goes for those of you with "out of office" auto-replies. ------------------------------------ To Post a message, send it to: scrumdevelopment <at> eGroups.com To Unsubscribe, send a blank message to: scrumdevelopment-unsubscribe <at> eGroups.comYahoo!

It's up to you to make sure you clarify what you want help with.
###### Some Guidelines:
- A brief subject line helps
- You can enter a more lengthly description in the.. ummm.. description part
- You might want to add a checklist of points you want covered. This way you can tick off items throughout the
discussion when yopu feel they have been answered. This could help everyone keep on focus.
- Use colors, experiment with the options, have fun!
Facilitating a discussion
=======================
Someone should take up faciltating the discussion before it's started.
The facilitator is the ScrumMaster for this discussion - so help it shine!
Facilitation is volentary - Any member of the Scrum of Scrum organization can volenteer to do it.
To volenteer to facilitate a discussion - just assign it to yourself. That simple.
Joining a discussion
=======================
Anyone can join a discussion and give their input.
Once you join - you'r part of the team - welcome!
It's up to you to work together with the other team-members on the discussion to get the OP a good result.
Facilitators - do what you know to keep the discussion on track.
May the Schwartz be with you!
Ending a discussion
=======================
In Scrum The SM is responsible for holding up timeboxes. So here too - the facilitator of a discussion should
bring it to an end when the due date is coming up.
Discussion Review
=======================
Once the discussion is over - time to review it.
######Facilitators
Um.... Facilitate a review with the PO/OP and the team.
You know how. And if you don't - this is a good place to learn and practice.
######PO
Do you accept or reject the discussion? Have you gotten an answer to your question? How valuable was it for
you? feedback please!
######Team
This is YOUR chance to feel good - you've helped someone and done the best you can doing it!
Take the feedback as a gift, even if it's not always positive. It'll help you get it better next time.
Retrospective
==============
How did we as a team work well? How did we communicate? What was hard and irritating?What would we do better
next time?
Facilitators - Facilitate this! Help the Team and OP's get better as both Scrummers and People. Inspect and
adapt for next time. Make the world a better place!
Done is Done, baby
===================
Facilitators - move the discussion to Done once it's Done. Make sure it's either Done-Done,
Done-Done-Done or Well-Done. Doesn't really matter as long as it's Done.
Cafeteria Talk
==============
Everyone - feel free to continue discussing even after the discussion is done. Off-topic issues are better
served in the Cafeteria Board - Feel free to hop in. The coffee's on us :)
Facilitators - you imght want to move a discussion there once it's done. It's your call.
Oh my, it's the Scrum Police...
===============================
Ok, I guess that's me... yikes.
I'll be responsible for upholding the basic rules mentioned above.
Including (I'm thinking this up as I write):
+ If I see someone starts discussing without a facilitator - I'll pull the discussion back to "TODO".
+ If I see this persists - I'll delete the discussion (Ok I can't really delete it but I might archive it, or put
it up in the "Hall of Shame" board? hm....)
+ In general anyone who misbehaves will have the Spanish Inquisitin on their heels. Hah, I wish...
I'll try to do all this without making a total ass of myself. Feedback welcome.
##So welcome aboard!
