Meta

 * Process can be adapted to all parts of development process for the Open Source Economy:
 * Organizational infrastructure
 * Advisory Board development
 * Strategic Development
 * Development of one of 50 technologies
 * Factor e Farm development
 * Land Stewardship
 * Production
 * Post-scarcity village development
 * Global Collaboration Development
 * Resource Development
 * Recruiting
 * Lean Platform Development
 * Before project starts - stake holder defines MMF and recruits Scrum Master. For scalability, an Organization is set up to facilitate a generalized XM platform - an organization for open hardware as Wikimedia Foundation is to open knowledge.
 * XM can be applied at the level of: (1), a product; (2), one of its components; (3) the organization; or (4), parts of the organiziation.
 * All steps of XM development process can occur simultaneously - delivering unprecedented development velocity. See Rugby approach: development overlaps across several stages of development.
 * Under Resource Expandability Scenario (volunteer contributions), projects can be started as soon as Definition of Ready and Definition of Done is provided.
 * If development effort is not based on voluntary contributions, then a budgeting procedure must be included.

Quality Control
When volunteer effort is present, an internal quality control mechanism exists: people spend their own energy, so they are accountable to themselves for achieves results. This situation is different if the project provides funding - "or opens up its wallet and shuts its mouth" to provide full autonomy to the team.

To address quality control in an externally-funded (external to the resources of the development team itself), we propose XM Review conducted by the Scrum Master.
