!!! Overview
[{$pagename}] is how much availability the [Development Team] has for the [Iteration] and is used for [Iteration Planning]


This is about all that can be agreed upon.  [{$pagename}] is mentioned only twice in the [Scrum] Guide where it is never defined. Remembering that [Scrum] is a [Framework] that is to be adapted as required.



[{$pagename}] for the [Delivery Team] is derived from three simple measures for each [Development Team] member:
* Number of ideal [hours] in the work [day]
* [Days] in the iteration that the person will be available
* Percentage of time the person will dedicate to this [Development Team]

For [example], let's look at a team of five individuals, all committed to the [Development Team] full-time. Each has about six ideal hours per day to work on tasks, and no one is taking vacation. For a week-long iteration:
%%prettify 
{{{
5 team members X 6 ideal hours X 5 working days = 150 hours of task capacity
}}} /%

Each team should consider [{$pagename}] in determining how many [Product Backlog] items to plan for a [Iteration]. The team may want to consider taking on fewer [Product Backlog] items if [{$pagename}] is expected to be less for the sprint. Likewise, if more team members are recently added, the team may want to take on more [Product Backlog] items.
