I just blogged about How To Maintain Separate Design and Development Backlogs over at the Pivotal Labs blog.
Previously, we discussed when to use different types of backlogs, categorized various types of stories, and described a general flow for agile design. In this post we won’t rehash that material, but instead will describe some of the practices specific to separate Design and Development backlogs.
Check it out, and let me know what you think in the comments!
UPDATE: Go read Part 1 How to Manage a Design Backlog and Part 2, How to Integrate Design in an Agile Backlog.
