Yep, a developer can work on their own 4-point project and doesn't require collaborating with anyone or any oversight other than approval from a PM before making it live if it is a user-facing feature. The only requirement is documenting how the project is good for Kiva. Some people would like to do something like say go learn Perl with their time. That's great for the person, but better covered by the professional development budget than innovation iteration. So, sometimes something like that gets shot down, but it's rare.
