There were six of us on the meeting today. We were trying to refine some of the user stories. We had Alan, Bryan, Chuck, Cory, John, and I on the meeting. We started out by doing a review of the basic scrum pieces. See attached for our notes. We spent most of our time going over the user stories and acceptance criteria for the project. Still learning as a team, but making progress.

There are two docs attached to this element of time. One is general scrum notes and such. The other one is our notes from today dealing with the refinement process of our current project - global product or item catalog.

Towards the end of the meeting, there was a small discussion about the team members and what their strengths are and how we could mix these pieces. We are going to have Alan jump in and take the lead and help get some things prepped and ready for the next step. We are all learning as we go. Even today, we are scrumming and setting up self-forming teams and pulling retrospective views, learning and moving forward.

One note for the future... We need to work on planning things out far enough to let the other guys know about our plans. We have been developing things all by ourselves for years. It takes more future planning to get things coordinated with other team members.
