Guidance

• Creating a backlog document is about capturing the ideas that are immediately on-hand, not about fleshing out an idea or preparing for implementation
• Backlog documents serve as a placeholder or TODO item
  • Implementation details come in a separate process and separate document
• Draw relevant information from the conversation (if any) when drafting the document
  • Think through what information should and should not be included
