The goals of this project was to boost the capacity of an scrum team to be more efficient despite the
number of people in the team (more than 15).

their Scrum's implementaion.
The Scrum majors changes were :
- implement and share a robust definition of ready and done with PO
- stop to affect people on User Story during planing meeting by the Scrum Master
- split the team on 2 sub-team working on the same product but on separate sprint backlog
- change the daily standup ritual for dynamizing it
- ...
Changes has been progressively implemented and at each end of month we had an openspace
retrospective with team, PO, SM, managers and some customers to mesure progess and define goals
assigned to next iteration
The team has decided to take some eXtreme Programing tools like :
- Continus Intégration
- Collective ownership on code
- Pair reviewing
I hope it will have a new step of progres next year.
