Dev Kick-Off

The goal of dev kick-offs is to introduce upcoming features to the dev team. During the meeting, they have the opportunity to ask questions to understand the issue better and to challenge assumptions & motivation. Lastly, the goal is to split the feature into several work packages (stories in clubhouse) that can be built and estimated separately.
