    Great answer - you could even improve it by highlighting or TL;DR ing the most important points: commitment can only come freely from the developer himself and work needs to be sustainable Commented Sep 20, 2019 at 15:07
  • Also, if you have delays due to dependency from other teams, the amount of time you are blocked should be visible by your team. Commented Sep 20, 2019 at 16:03

    I believe they changed the wording to 'forecast'; much like a weather forecast, it can be wrong, it has levels of certainty, and the stories completed in a sprint help the team get better at estimating in the future. Commented Sep 20, 2019 at 17:02

    @GeorgeStocker Yes - the word "forecast" is used instead of "commit" with respect to the Sprint Backlog and specific work items. However, "commit" and "commitment" is used with respect to the goals of the team. Commented Sep 20, 2019 at 17:04
