Let's say your day job is providing a website on which paying customers can upload images.
Youre currently only supporting jpeg and png.
Your objective for a quarter could be to broaden support.
So you'd plan to add 10 additional formats. If you add 8, you've achieved your goal. Makes sense, right?
Honestly, the snide comments are spot on. It was even dumber then SMART SCRUM, aka development via waterfall, which is totally agile xoxo

- Geezus_42 2y agoThe point is that you set a goal and made progress towards it. Ideally you choose goals for yourself and it's expected that you won't complete them all. I still don't like it.
