=== Sprint report ===

When writing a post about a sprint, you should cover the following points:

 * Background information about the team(s) meeting
 * Quick overview of the points discussed or worked on in the meeting.
 * Any output from the sprints that's visible to users.
 * A photo of the people participating in the sprint. It's not compulsory but adds a human touch :)
