Balance halten: Im neuen IX Magazin (Heft 8/2009) ist nun der Scrum Artikel zum Thema Product Owner erschienen.
"Wer agile Softwareentwicklung betreiben will, trifft früher oder später unweigerlich auf Scrum. Erfolg verspricht dieses Vorgehen allerdings nur dann, wenn man die definierten Rollen mit den richtigen Personen besetzt.
So viel zum Aufmacher des Artikels. Im Moment gibts den Artikel nur als Print Ausgabe: http://www.heise.de/ix/inhalt.shtml
