Alan and team were doing some sprint planning. This is all part of our bigger scrum and agile training sessions. We had Bryan, Alan, Cory, John, Chuck, and myself on the meeting. We were going over user stories (list of to do list items) and using adilas to record and categorize those pieces. Alan did a great job and was getting feedback and questions from all of the parties involved. He had me demo some stuff, do some stick figure drawings, and help explain some of the options or flow. Cory had quite a few questions, Chuck made some suggestions, and John asked some very detailed questions about some of things that were just assumed but not fully stated. I thought that it was a good meeting.

Towards the end, we started using adilas to run these epics, user stories, combine the pieces, claim certain parts, and build out reports for our own internal usage. We are planning on using adilas for the project management tool and pulling reports to move pieces around on our own virtual scrum boards. We may end up doing some tweaking to this process later on, but for now, we'll just do it manually. I think that we are recording all of the data, we just want to make sure that it works.

After everybody else had left, it was just Cory, Alan, and I on the meeting. We spent some time and lightly planned out, on a calendar, our next couple of sprint windows. We plugged in some timeslots and pre-booked some time into January. The goal is to carve out some time so that this becomes a habit and where we are headed. We already have a number of things that are lining up to be in the sprints.
