> even if the project runs out of money after a few sprints, the most important requirements will have been met. The product owner still gets to prioritise a backlog (the product backlog) according to business and user requirements. Interesting, but if the team are choosing items from the product backlog there seems no guarantee that the product owner will get the stuff that they consider important done? If the team assemble their sprint backlog, they'll do their own prioritisation which may not sync with the product owner's.
